Star of BBC Two’s sitcom Hebburn, series regular on Celebrity Juice (ITV2), and Edinburgh Comedy Award nominee CHRIS RAMSEY will be returning to the Edinburgh Festival Fringe for three consecutive nights at the Underbelly’s McEwan Hall with his critically-acclaimed show Feeling Lucky. These are CHRIS’ biggest Edinburgh shows to date and will be the last time he performs this four-times-extended UK-tour show.
How did we get here? Elaborately laid plan, or just pure fluke? Who knows… do you feel lucky? Perhaps you should.
Later this year CHRIS will be touring the UK with his brand new stand-up show The Most Dangerous Man on Saturday Morning Television and starring in the second series of the critically-acclaimed sitcom Hebburn (co-starring VIC REEVES), returning to BBC Two later this year; the first series peaked at over 2 million viewers. He is currently has his own show in development for the BBC about the world of social media and now has over 220,000 followers on Twitter.
