THE comedians' favourite funnyman is due to appear at Worcester's Swan Theatre tomorrow.

Johnnie Casson, hailed by Bob Monkhouse, Bruce Forsyth and Des O'Connor as one of the funniest men in Britain, is one of two new faces lined up for A Comedy Night Out.

For the last two New Year's Eves, the Yorkshire performer has been a guest on the Des O'Connor Show and has dropped in to see Des and Mel.

For this year's A Comedy Night Out tour he will join Ian 'Sludge' Lees and Tony Palmer, as well as newcomer Billy Hunter.

Tickets to the show, which starts at 7.30pm, cost £14 (concessions £13). Call the box office on 01905 611427.
