Oh yeh! This guy is fantastic! I'm ..er..I mean ... he is the greatest comic ever to have played in such legendary clubs as the 'Birkenhead Scouse House' (Well, one of of the greatest - I'm definitly in the top 100)

Comedian Ben Harland plays the role of a nervous comic, uneasy with the audience and with a seemingly unscripted act. At first, this seems brave, as the danger of confusing the audience always looms. Instead, Harland draws the audience in, and bonds immediately. It becomes quickly apparent that the antic disposition is indeed a comic disguise.
Silly, charming, and disarming giving him license for a unique and 'other-worldly' style of joke. Popular with audiences. * * *
