Star of BBC Two’s sitcom Hebburn, co-starring VIC REEVES, and series regular on Celebrity Juice (ITV2), Edinburgh Comedy Award nominated CHRIS RAMSEY is set to embark on a brand new 38-date national tour from 9th November 2013, following the success of his 2012 twice-extended sell-out tour Feeling Lucky.
After being thrown off Soccer AM (Sky) for what he thought was an innocuous comment, CHRIS RAMSEY started to wonder whether he might actually be ‘the most dangerous man on Saturday morning television’. He discovers what happens when you say the wrong thing in the wrong place at the wrong time.
This year CHRIS RAMSEY will star in the second series of critically-acclaimed sitcom Hebburn returning to BBC Two later this year, which peaked at over 2 million viewers. CHRIS RAMSEY is currently piloting his own show for the BBC with Avalon Television about the world of social media and now has over 200,000 followers on Twitter. CHRIS is supported by CARL HUTCHINSON.
Tickets for Chris Ramsey: The Most Dangerous Man on Saturday Morning Television are available through CHRIS’ website, www.chrisramseycomedy.com and are on presale today Wednesday 17th April at 9am via www.see.tickets.com, on Thursday 18th via www.ticketmaster.com and general sale from Friday 19th April at 9am. A full list of 2013/2014 dates are on the following page.
