He’s back – and he’s unstoppable. Gyles Brandreth can’t stop talking. The jumper-loving This Morning star, who keeps popping up on Pointless, QI, Would I Lie To You?, Sunday Brunch, and The One Show, has been burbling and babbling since he was a baby, and in his hilarious one-man show the award-winning raconteur (and holder of the world record for the longest-ever after-dinner speech - 12 and a half hours!) is trying to work out why.
From 40 years on Radio 4’s Just A Minute to 7 years on Channel 4’s Celebrity Gogglebox, he can’t keep his mouth shut. He even talks in his sleep. What’s it all about? He’s going to tell you on this roller-coaster ride of tales and revelations from his unlikely life in show business and politics. There will be surprises too (for him and you) when the audience gets to decide what he’s going to talk about next. His Top Ten multi-million download podcast, Rosebud, usually pops up.
Don’t miss him – novelist, actor, ex-MP, No 1 best-selling biographer, wordsmith and verbivore (he suffers from logorrhea - knows how to spell it and knows what it means) – he’s won the Audience Award for Most Popular Show on the Fringe, multiple 5-star reviews and every time he’s been to Edinburgh his shows have sold out. Fast. So book now.
