Sunday Brunch, February 13, 9.30am, C4 with tim key, lou sanders

Good to see Tim Key and Lou Sanders as two of the guests on Sunday Brunch this week. They are two of my favourite comedians.

Tim Key is an absolutely joy. It would be quicker to mention the programmes he has not appeared in than the ones he has. He was in the first ever episode of Inside No 9. He was recently seen taking Diane Morgan's character on a date in the Ricky Gervais series After Life. He's due to appear in a new series called The Witchfinder with Daisy May Cooper early in 2022, which should be another date for your diary. And he is very keen on the paternoster lift at Sheffield University where he studied Russian.

He is very much a comedy chameleon.You never known quite what you are going to get with Key. Maybe a bearded werido, maybe a cherubic clean shaven chap. He will probably be talking on Sunday Brunch about his new book of quirky romantic poetry, out in time for Valentine's Day. 'Here We Go Round The Mulberry Bush' is out 14 th Feb -  a chronicle of Key's life as the new 2021 lockdown took hold featuring his inimitable style of poetry & storytelling. He will also be performing some live date to plug the book.

Lou Sanders is one of the comedians that has kept me sane throughout the pandemic, mainly by posting clips of her roller skating antics on Instagram. Lou is also good fun as co-host of Dave’s Unforgivable with Mel Giedroyc, which was crowned Best Entertainment Programme at the Broadcast Digital Awards 2021. Now that the world is getting back to something like normality I don't know if she will have so much time for skating as she is going on tour. I suggest you buy a ticket pronto. Details here. 

Also appearing on the show alongside Tim Lovejoy and Simon Rimmer are writer Marian Keyes and the utterly brilliant Neil Hannon, who definitely makes the show worth getting out of bed for.
