Mock The Week’s Andy Parsons announces tour

Andy Parsons

One of Mock The Week’s key comedians, Andy Parsons, is to embark on a mammoth three-month tour of the UK.

The bald-headed funnyman pits his wits against other popular comedians such as Russell Howard and Michael McIntyre on the BBC’s top satire show Mock The Week. He has also starred in BBC1’s recent Live At The Apollo, as well as Stephen Fry’s QI, and Parsons’ acerbic wit is proving to be as popular as the wares of his Mock The Week colleagues.

His new stand-up show is entitled CITIZENS! and in it he considers how we might make the world a better place… if only we could be arsed.
