FINLAY CHRISTIE & COLIN HOULT - A NIGHT OF COMEDY IN HOVE
On Monday 15th December, we shall be recording a night of comedy for BBC Radio 4 at The Brunswick in Hove, nr Brighton.
The first act of the evening will be Finlay Christie
In Finlay Christie is Younger than You, Gen Z Finlay Christie provides insight into how he and his generation are both the best and the worst generation to deal with the coming apocalypse. Using new and existing material from his successful Edinburgh shows he’ll cover topics like; the expectations of different generations;
“pensioners complaining they can’t heat their house. That sounds like a boast – You’ve got a house?!’ ...”
the differences between the generations; “People say young people are more sensitive, but every generation is sensitive, we’re just sensitive about different stuff. We’re sensitive about pronouns, old people are sensitive about princess Diana.”
and how his generation feel about the world; "Gen Z are very nihilistic. World’s gonna end in our lifetimes and we don’t care. One girl in Sweden cared and that made the news.”
“TikTok has made me see people who watch films as intellectuals. Ooh, you have a penchant for cinéma?? Ohohoho.”
The second act of our evening will be Colin Hoult
In Colin's show, he explores how his bizarre family made him the man he is today. Now, as a 45 year-old dad, he wonders if it’s too late to do anything about it.
Based on his hugely successful 2024 Edinburgh show Colin weaves anecdotes and musings with all too real stories about his early life, featuring a recurring cast of characters: his perennially pessimistic mum, his not quite in reality brothers and his long-suffering Dad who screams ‘Why can’t we just be a normal family?’
Colin asks 'Is it a surprise my neurodiversity was missed?' But growing up in Nottingham we just had a simple phrase that covered everything - ‘He’s not right.’
The show will take place on Monday 15th December 2025 at The Brunswick in Hove, near Brighton and booking is now open, so if you would like to join us for a night of great comedy, then apply now!
