Mark Watson: 20 years in stand-up for the 'Taskmaster' cheeky texts icon, multi-award-winner, YouTube cult figure and Radio 4 favourite returns

About

20 years in stand-up for the 'Taskmaster' cheeky texts icon, multi-award-winner, YouTube cult figure, Radio 4 favourite and recently 'Baby Reindeer' actor: Watson returns after seasons at the Adelaide, Melbourne, Sydney and Edinburgh comedy festivals.

A recent encounter with a stranger caused Mark to spend some time pondering the uncertain future facing humanity. He explores this – along with equally pressing matters like the worst word he has ever said in public, the current state of the UK sausage industry, and much more – in a typically frantic and fun-packed new show.

★★★★ 'This is a stand-up operating at the very top of his game' Independent
