A qual line up to enjoy with....
Paul did his new show ‘Ambulance for One’ at the Edinburgh Fringe in August 2025
“The Essex bloke is something of a geezer …plenty of showbiz patter…. his set proves very effective…. gag-focussed delivery…. high laugh rate…. you’d think that the spirit of Mike Reid is alive and well” Steve Bennett – Chortle
“Paul Merryck’s good-natured, gag-laden banter made for a fun, uplifting set with lots of charm” Paul Golder – Phoenix FM
“**** (4 stars) Cheeky, effulgent and playful…a happy-go-lucky bloke to spark laughs throughout the audience” BritishTheatre.com
Funny for Nothing mainstay Merryck is an Essex based comedian who has been making a name for himself as one of the more original and outrageous character acts on the UK comedy circuit. Feckless, amoral and utterly unabashed, the middle-aged chancer he portrays disdainfully deconstructs the disaster that is his life, in a hilarious sequence of short gags and tall stories.

Eli James
Eli James is an American standup and actor who recently moved to the UK from New York City, where he plied his trade as an actor for 20 years and performed standup for eight years. He’s known for his self-deprecating wit and uncanny facility with voices. In London, he has performed at venues including Angel Comedy Club, Crystal Palace Comedy Club, the Sam Rhodes Comedy Explosion, Backyard Comedy Club, and more. His cartoon voiceover work has earned him a following around the world from fans of Yu-Gi-Oh and Pokémon, and his US TV credits include Gossip Girl, Unforgettable, Alpha House, and Lights Out. You can also catch him in the recent Hollywood spy thriller The Amateur, starring Rami Malek. He performed in the UK and Ireland tour of Bob Dylan’s Girl From the North Country, and his Broadway credits include the National Theatre's One Man Two Guvnors, directed by Nicholas Hytner. He was a house-team performer at New York’s legendary comedy venue the Upright Citizens Brigade Theatre, and he developed two acclaimed solo shows: Imagine All the People: A Survey of Music Business Creeps and William and the Tradesmen, which was dubbed “a gem ... well-wrought, insightful and precise" by nytheatre.com.

Ant Parselle
Funny for Nothing founder Parselle is a wise old sage, who gleefully rips apart the absurdities of modern living in a series of hilarious routines, tinged with the bitterness of the miserable old bastard he undoubtedly is. After performing for over 10 years, much of Ant’s material is still as fresh and fragrant as the man he’d like to be, as it’s written on the train to the gig. This also explains why he forgets what he’s saying much of the time, or is that just a ruse to lure us in to his chaotic world. Either way he’s bloody funny.
