The BAFTA-winning comedian, writer and director – best known for his roles in The IT Crowd and hosting Travel Man – will take to the stage for an evening of his trademark dry wit, surreal observations and uniquely awkward charm.

Now, in the midst of some self-inflicted financial difficulty, he turns to the stage, inviting you to explore over 500 of his colossal notions. Thoughts like…
