    I'm just watching his programme travelling around Australia. I have to say he seems a good bloke and I do find him to be genuinely witty.

    Has anyone see his stand up show?

    No idea. Definitely not at work, though. Honest.

    Great stand-up. Not the best, but likeable and funny. The Liverpool material wears a bit thin, but his family stuff is brilliant.

    I saw him in Sheffield a couple of years ago and he was very good.

    Seems a decent bloke but about as entertaining as a Tuesday night first round Paint Pot trophy game at Jokewell.

    He's doing a show at Sheff Arena in the autumn so I was thinking I might go.

    Don't do it. Nothing to do with John Bishop, but stand up at an arena venue is awful!

    Go and see him mate. He's very good Imho. As for comedians in Arena venues - each to their own but I saw Peter Kay at Newcastle Arena and it was a fantastic show
