THE 'German Comedy Ambassador to the United Kingdom', Henning Wehn, is set to visit Whitchurch this year for a stand-up show at the Civic Centre.

The TV comic will headline Funny Beeseness' popular Live At The Civic night at the Civic Centre on Saturday, December 5.

Wehn has appeared on Live At The Apollo and a host of panel shows including Would I Lie To You, QI, Have I Got News For You and Room 101.

He will be supported on the night by musical comic Vikki Stone, who has appeared on the likes of The John Bishop Show and This Morning.

Welshman Mike Bubbins, a regular Glee Club headliner, completes the line-up.

Resident MC Wayne Beese will again take on the hosting duties and said he was delighted with the line-up.

"I'm over the moon we've managed to get Henning," Beese said.

"He is a fantastic stand-up and a real big name, and in Vikki and Mike we've got two acts in support who've gone down a storm whenever we've booked them.

"It all makes for an amazing night of comedy and we'd urge people to get in quick and book as Henning is usually very popular.

"We appreciate it is an uncertain time with regard to live shows, so we offer a Covid-19 guarantee that refunds will always be offered if we can't put shows on or have to move them to another date."

Tickets are now on sale and are expected to be snapped up quickly so to book, go to www.funnybeeseness.co.uk
