EPISODE 84: PAUL TONKINSON

In this episode, I talk to the brilliant comedian PAUL TONKINSON, about his comedy career. Tonkinson is an extraordinary live performer. Winning the 1992 Time Out New Act of the Year Award and the Time Out Stand-Up Comic of the Year in 1997, he is a regular headlining act on the comedy circuit.  Famed for his lively visual and physicality and accurate parodies, his first-rate material on every-day life is hysterical. He has been tour-support for Michael McIntyre in 2013, 2015 and 2021 and, on television, he has also hosted Channel 4’s The Big Breakfast and the BBC’s The Sunday Show. I have seen Tonkinson perform for Headliners Comedy Club in 2015, Banana Cabaret in 2017, Always Be Comedy in 2017 and 2020 and supporting Michael McIntyre at the Leicester Square Theatre, London in 2021.
