Comedian Gyles Brandreth brings his new show, built from his childhood memories, to the Royal Hall in Harrogate, joined by his podcast producer Harriet Jaine.
Gyles Brandreth returns to the stage at the Royal Hall on Wednesday 7 April 2027, with a new comedy show called Up Memory Lane. He's not on his own this time; he's joined by Harriet Jaine, the producer of his multi-million download podcast Rosebud.
Brandreth has built the show from his childhood memories and the twists of an unlikely life, which he describes as a 'Rosebud' twist. He's a former MP and a five-star comedy legend, and the critics have been generous: the Daily Mail called him 'wildly funny', the Telegraph a 'master raconteur', and the Sunday Times simply 'genius'. With Jaine by his side, the set draws on the same storytelling that's driven the podcast.
