Dead Ringers: The 25th Anniversary Tour

Dead Ringers: The 25th Anniversary Tour

Show type: Tour

To celebrate its 25th anniversary, BBC Radio 4’s legendary, multi-award-winning topical satire show Dead Ringers is hitting the road with a full UK tour for the first time.



Featuring much-loved long-standing cast members Jon Culshaw, Jan Ravens, Lewis McLeod, and Duncan Wisbey, the live show promises a hilarious journey through a quarter century of classic sketches, uncanny impressions, and the cutting-edge political and cultural satire that has defined the series.


The tour will be a tribute to Dead Ringers creator and producer Bill Dare, who passed away suddenly in March. Bill was a legendary figure in radio & TV comedy having also been behind such classic series as The Now Show, Spitting Image, and The Mary Whitehouse Experience among many others, and the entire team is honoured to have the opportunity to celebrate his work in this way.



Audiences can expect the trademark Dead Ringers mix of wit, mischief, and the sharpest impressions in the business, all delivered live by the show’s masterful cast.


The Dead Ringers radio show returns in all its topical glory this June on BBC Radio 4 as part of Friday Night Comedy. This tour is a special event and will not be for broadcast.
