Dave Spikey: The Best Medicine (with special guest)
at the Royal Hall, Harrogate
Thursday 22 May 2008

Release Date:
14th March
 
The double British Comedy Award winner, co-writer and star of Phoenix Nights returns with a brand new live show.  He's recently starred as team captain in four series of Ch4's 8 out of 10 Cats, hosted classic gameshow Bullseye and appeared on Parkinson and the Royal Variety Performance. Now he's back in Harrogate for a one night performance at the Royal Hall on Thursday 22 May.
 
Back on the road, he'll be tackling the old adage "Laughter is the Best Medicine". It was his dad's favourite saying; which explains why when Dave was six, he nearly died with diphtheria.  Scientific evidence in fact endorses these wise words and it's proven that laughter boosts the immune system, reduces stress and blood pressure, and here's the clincher.... burns calories!  So this new show is Dave's small contribution to improving the health of the nation. Come along, have a laugh and hopefully you'll go away in much better health, and you could burn off 200 calories - and that's a pint of lager!
