I’m there!"- Sadaf Fahim.\n\nPAUL F TAYL OR\nThe award winning Paul F Taylor is a one of the UK’s most original a nd distinctive stand-up performers. His unique brand of humour fuses quirk y offbeat one liners with surreal and observational flights of fancy to fa ntastical effect.\n\n"Beautifully silly and odd gags\, told with frenetic energy that’s sometimes hard to keep up with... His approach is reminisc ent of Harry Hill or Steve Martin in his funny years\, although Taylor exc eeds them both in frenzied delivery... An act where there can either be tw elve jokes in a minute\, or where one joke can go on to incomprehensible l ength." ShortCom ★★★★\n\n“Paul F Taylor is going to rear a cult following of those with refined senses of humour &\; you should join us .” - THREE WEEKS\n\n"Talks about everyday observations but with a wonder ful edge of surrealism" - CHORTLE\n\n"Wickedly funny and astute observatio nal comedy" - GQ MAGAZINE.\n\nCHRISTIAN TALBOT\nChristian Talbot is a stan d-up comedian from Dublin\, based in Northern Ireland.
