35 arena dates for Winging It

John Bishop has announced an arena tour for autumn 2017.

Winging It will take in 35 dates, starting at Belfast's SSE Arena on October 4, ending on November 25.

he comic said: ‘When I start this new tour, it will be three years since my last live show Supersonic, which is the longest break I've ever had.

I'm very much looking forward to getting back on the road - there really is nothing like performing stand-up in front of a live audience.

‘The new show is called Winging It, and in some respects having come to comedy relatively late, it sometimes feels like that’s what I'm doing in life! But I'm enjoying every minute of it.’

This will be his fifth UK tour; and follows Supersonic, which was seen by more than 500,000 people.

Bishop, who has just launched his own talk show on the W channel, will appear ITV’s new legal conspiracy thriller Fearless next year too. The six-part drama has been written by Homeland’s Patrick Harbinson.

Tickets for Winging It will go on general sale on Thursday next week at 10am.
