1. Ed Byrne interviews Al Murray
Irish stand-up comedian Ed Byrne chats to the Pub Landlord himself Al Murray in the talk tag show. From February 2016.
Two heavyweights of stand-up are in conversation as Ed Byrne interviews Al Murray.
Ed tackles Al on a vast array of topics from Thackeray's attitude to the Irish to the thorny issue of offence in comedy via how best to talk to McFly.
Ed Byrne is an Irish comedian and actor.
His celebrated observational routines made him a leading light of the UK stand-up circuit in the mid-90s and he went on to tour internationally, playing festivals and theatres across the world.
After an early stand-up foray as a character called 'The Murderer', Al Murray created his famous Pub Landlord character in the mid-90s as part of a touring show with Harry Hill.
The Pub Landlord went on to tour venues and festivals worldwide before making his own TV chat shows and sitcom.
Al also presents history documentaries and stood against Nigel Farage in the 2015 UK General Election.
