A fantastic night of comedy will leave your body aching with laughter.
With Austin Knight you have a performer who has established himself as one of the most in demand entertainers on the circuit. His unrivalled professional standard of entertainment will transform the evening into an occasion to remember.
He's the funniest man on Earth. He's relentless. He's the T1000 of comedy. No matter how much you laugh, he keeps coming back with a better gag. He strikes a fine balance, with earthy humour, which is neither racist nor excessively offensive.
He starred at our Annual Dinner earlier this year and everybody I have spoken to thoroughly enjoyed themselves. It was a fantastic and hilarious evening and had his timing and delivery spot on.
Probably the funniest comedian Birchfield has ever engaged in recent years. He’s witty and spontaneous throughout. Just make sure that you do not leave your seat during his act.
He got his first break in the 1970s at the "Search for a Star" competition at Blighty’s, a cabaret club in Farnworth. Austin Knight began his comedy career in the early 70s as a club circuit impressionist; in the early 80s he became a traditional stand-up comedian. He has written comedy scripts for TV and radio, writing material for Tommy Cooper, Les Dawson and others.
Austin Knight has appeared in Coronation Street, Taggart, The Sandbaggers, Strike: The Birth of Solidarity, Cribb the Detective, Fallen Hero and as a comedian on Granada's The New Comedians.
