Bernie Keith Life Without Sat Nav 3***

August 16, 2017 |

Bernie’s BBC radio background should give him an edge when it comes to delivering his material, but I recommend he drop in the odd un-radio like pause between gags. We didn’t really get a chance to laugh before the next … Read More

Twayne Mayne Black Girl 4****

August 16, 2017 |

Samantha Pressdee: Back 2 Basics 4****

August 16, 2017 |
