SOLIHULL comedian and Mock The Week regular Gary Delaney calls his tour show There's Something About Gary, but what exactly is that "something".

"That 'something' is I like to write jokes. An awful lot of them," he says, ahead of Thursday night's Hyena Lounge Comedy Club gig at The Duchess in York. "Also I think a good joke should be like a drunk Glaswegian, short and punchy. My new tour show is not only great for people who like lots of jokes but also fun for people who enjoy getting offended by jokes too."

Delaney, husband of fellow comic Sarah Millican, specialises in one-liners, writes for the telly and radio and enjoys naps and bullet points. Full stop.

Tickets for Thursday cost £14 at hyenalounge.com, on 01904 641413 or on the door from 7pm.
