This show saw us kicking off the new Autumn season......but where was everyone? For those who did make, they saw a great nights entertainment, finished off by a star in the making.

In the middle section we had this great new act - Helmut the German Tourist. This was the first time this character has appeared on stage, and the material is very strong and well throught out.

Finally the headline act, Mark Walker. This act is quite simply brilliant. I personally would put him on a par with the likes of Addy Borgh or Noel James. He did fifty minutes for us and his material was top class. His section on his proposed 'Gay Spiderman - The Musical' is sheer genius and what can I say about the section on his brain and willy talking to each other. This guy deserves to be at the top and at this rate he definately will be.

Many thanks must go to these two members of the audience who help Patrick Monahan, the compere, recreate a scene from Lord of the Rings.

Opening the show was Dalton Trombo's Reluctant Cabaret - now a foursome. A great act, that always goes down well at the Cheeky Monkey.
