About The Comedy Salon Presented by Robert and Gemma Ross

“A really happy, fun – always interesting – feelgood day. A ‘Forget your Troubles and Let’s Get Happy’ time.” – Georgina Moon

Yes, they’re back! In what has become an extremely popular treat for devotees of the Best of British Comedy. Robert Ross – the man Barry Cryer dubbed ‘Britain’s Comedy Historian’ – hosts another full day of hilarious anecdotes in the company of a roll-call of very special guests.

And Gemma Ross, author of best-selling celebrations of women in comedy The Carry On Girls, and Herlarious, will, as always, be on hand to keep the fun forever flowing. Robert and Gemma will also be happy to sign any of their books you bring along on the day, as part of your ticket price.

Our previous guests have included Su Pollard, Melvyn Hayes, Perry Benson, Carol Cleveland, Robert Gillespie, Jeffrey Holland, Judy Buxton, Stuart McGugan, Valerie Leon, Larry Dann, Paul Cole, Richard O’Callaghan, Jacki Piper, Brian Murphy, Penny Spencer, David Barry, David Webb, Brad Ashton, and, beamed in from New York City, Jim Dale.

Throughout the day there will be ample opportunity to purchase signed photographs and books, grab a happy snap with your favourite star, and mingle with our celebrities in a relaxed and informal setting. There’ll be a comedy quiz, a mini auction of rare treasures from the vault, and a well-stocked bar and cafe, as well as cinema books and memorabilia all on sale to support this amazing venue.

Do follow our Instagram and Facebook accounts @robertrosscomedyhistorian for regular updates and for announcements of which of your comedy favourites will be joining us for another day of love and laughter.

All guests appear subject to other work and family commitments, but you can be guaranteed of an amazing line-up.
