Scouse comic returning in July

One of Britain's biggest comics has announced a return to the Isle of Man this summer.

John Bishop will appear at the Gaiety Theatre on Sunday, 9 July.

It's a warm-up gig ahead of his nationwide Winging It tour in Autumn - his first run of UK venues in three years.

The Scouse wit has more recently been entertaining audiences with his BBC chat show - but he says he 'can't wait to get out on the road again'.
