Hi Folks,

On June the 5th, his months Joke Box goes all offside and off colour with Bob Doolally, A legend in his own liquid lunchtime, Bob ‘The Gob’ Doolally is now recognised as one of the most original and unique character comedy acts on the UK stage and screen. A retired football manager and ex-player who now hacks out a living as an after-dinner speaker and third-rate media pundit, Bob has been lauded by both the public and the press alike.

An evening with Bob recalls his footballing career in all its gory detail … the endless celebs he played for and managed, the numerous fights and on-pitch debacles, the six marriages to small town beauty queens, Tennent’s Lager Lovelies and C-list wannabes, and, of course, countless anecdotes of drink-fuelled debauchery.

Bob has appeared in many sell-out Edinburgh Fringe shows, including 2008’s Bob Doolally Talks Balls, several national tours of Scotland, performances at comedy festivals throughout the UK and numerous TV and radio shows – including Under The Moon (C4) and Radio 5’s live coverage of the 1998 World Cup.

Bob found a new legion of fans as a regular star of the BBC1 TV series, The Live Floor Show. His appearances in the follow-up series ‘Floor Show’ took this crazed, vodka-fuelled character into new depths of depravity and new heights of comic creativity. With a live CD released on his own ‘Sadly Dead Now’ label the cult is spreading.

‘What Al Murray is to publicans, Bob Doolally is to football punditry .. this alcohol and bile-spewing madman is just as witheringly observed as the landlord’ The Guardian
‘All the skill and precision of a Beckham free-kick’ The Stage
‘delivers a diatribe as blue as the Scotland shirts … and as comical as their World Cup record’ The Herald
‘sublime…almost better than football’ The Independent

Tickets are now on sale in Hamishes’ Hoose for the 8.30pm show for a Pearl Diver (£5) or on the door on the night. See you all then
