Pub Landlord's first ever tour

The Pub Landlord will be performing his new show, Who Dares Wines, over 54 dates this autumn.

He kicks of the tour in Winchester on September 27, winding up in Harrow on December 6. Click here for the full list of dates.

The tour will follow the success of previous West End shows including his 2001 show My Gaff, My Rules and the 1999 Perrier -winning show, And A Glass Of White Wine For The Lady.

Murray said: "Two years in the West End have made me yearn for the M1, the M6, the M62, the M25 and all the other M roads ­ as well as any A or B roads necessary to reach the theatres, arts centres and corn exchanges up and down Her Majesty's Britain.

"The sweet aroma of petrol fumes in my nostrils, the wind in where my hair would be and an angry lorry in my rear view mirror... beautiful."

The landlord's set will include routines on What Are We Going To Do Now The Germans Aren't International Bad Guy Any More, Why There Is Nothing "Only" About Being Human, and Why You Can't Reward Failure.
