I have to say he was worth the wait - what a cracking headline act he was.
The timing of his appearance was wonderful; Dave appeared fresh from his interview on the BBC Breakfast Show, where he uttered a somewhat naughty word. I won't say what it was, suffice to say it rhymes with 'tanker'.
One of our audience members had actually seen this little episode unfold before her eyes (you can catch it here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LcaFJsBSA_s which made for some very entertaining dialogue.
Dave Fulton's comedy is clever; some of it political, with very sharp observations. He strides onto the stage with a couldn't-give-a-stuff-approach which is very refreshing. Definitely one of our most popular headline acts who we'll be asking back.
We were also entertained last night by Windsor - an award winning street performer who had some wonderful interaction with our audience. Chris Norton Walker completed the line up, with a very interesting set. At one point, it could have gone either way, but the audience ended up in stitches.
Phil Dinsdale compered for us last night; a warm and witty comedian of Newcastle origin. I've seen Phil several times, and booked him several times, and he never fails to do a fantastic compering job.
We're also very grateful to Michael Palmer Photography who came along to take some piccies. Michael is a superb photographer; some of his images have been used in TV documentaries.

Next show 1 March 2012 when we have Gary Delaney and Edward Aczel. Can't wait!
