Stand-up show 'Fresh Hell' by British comedian Ed Gamble, billed as everyone's annoying cousin, at the Hexagon Theatre.
Ed Gamble is playing the Hexagon Theatre on Thursday 8 April 2027, with the show starting at 19:30. He's touring Fresh Hell, the new run that follows his biggest ever sold-out world tour across Europe, North America and Australasia. If you've seen him on the telly but never caught him live, this is a good place to start.
He's one of those faces you probably recognise without being quite sure where from. He co-hosts the award-winning food podcast Off Menu with James Acaster, and he's a regular on the panel show circuit — QI, Mock The Week and Would I Lie To You? among them. He's also been a judge on Great British Menu, a champion on Channel 4's Taskmaster, and had his own special on Amazon Prime, Blood Sugar. He's stood up at Live At The Apollo too, so he's well-versed in the big-room format.
These days he's doing a fair bit behind the scenes as well. He hosts the visualised spin-offs The Traitors: Uncloaked and Taskmaster The Podcast, and has the upcoming panel show Unacceptable on the way. He describes himself as everyone's annoying cousin, and the reviews tend to back that up: The i called him "consistently eye-wateringly hilarious" and Time Out went with "a class act. Comedy Gold."
