FOLLOWING the success of Little Victories tour in 2014, Alan Davies has extended his tour and Swindon is on the schedule.

After a hiatus, the comedian returned to his stand-up roots last year and shows no signs of wanting a break.

He will be back at the Wyvern Theatre for an already sold-out show on March 27.

Despite his previous hiatus from the comedy circut Alan is showing no signs of wanting to take another break.

“I love stand-up,” he says. “And I really like touring – I get a big kick out of it. I don’t find it arduous at all. It’s that or a 17-hour day looking after toddlers, which is much more difficult.

“Stand-up is a doddle comparatively. You go around the country making people laugh. It’s a really nice thing to do.”

Best known as the much-loved resident dunderhead on QI or the star of Jonathan Creek, Alan Davies began his career in stand-up comedy in 1988 and was runner-up in the City Limits New Act of the Year contest 1989. He was named Time Out Best Young Comic in 1991 and went on to win the Edinburgh Festival Critics Award for Comedy in 1994.

In 2011 he co-wrote and starred in a short film for Sky One as part of their Little Crackers.
