Pioneering alt-comedy hero and star of Cats Does Countdown Paul Foot is back on tour with a brand new stand-up show.
Remember when people were excited for the future? With visions of jetpacks, friendly robots wheeling around, and solar powered bidets. Well, we don’t have visions like that anymore, do we?
But the universe is not over. The light has not gone out. Here’s a candle in the dark. Contagious and whispering. And you can take it with you when you leave.
As seen on Would I Lie To You?, Never Mind the Buzzcocks and 8 Out of 10 Cats Does Countdown.
Winner: (ISH) Edinburgh Comedy Awards 2026 – Best Show Co-Winner
