ONE of Ireland’s funniest comedians Patrick Kielty, will return to his stand-up roots later this year with his new show Help.

Patrick will be bringing his Autumn tour to Worcester's Huntingdon Hall on Saturday, October 24 - but he cannot do it alone and needs the audience's help.

The former psychology graduate and star of BBC 1’s Live at the Apollo will attempt to write a modern rulebook for love, life and happiness.

Patrick said about the tour: "I'm really looking forward to getting out there on tour with my new show, Help.

"The fact that the audience gets involved every night means no two shows will be the same.

"Though what help they actually give me remains to be seen."

Patrick first rose to fame in 1995 after appearing on Comic Relief’s St Patrick’s Day Stand Up Special alongside comic heavy-weights Ben Elton and Jo Brand.

Following his successful television debut, Kielty went on to host Channel 4 comedy series Last Chance Lottery and hit BBC series show Fame Academy shortly after.

His chat show Patrick Kielty Almost Live hit screens in 2002 and ran for six seasons on BBC1 to critical acclaim. Recently, Patrick has been a regular voice on BBC Radio 2, also making appearances on Channel 4’s Comedy Roasts and hosting the channel’s popular show Stand Up For The Week.

Show begins at 8pm and tickets, costing £16, are available by calling 01905 611427.
