Barry Cryer OBE
Barry Cryer OBE is more than a comedy writer and performer, he is a living comic legend!

He has also acted in numerous television comedy shows and, as a champion of emerging talent, he hosted the BBC's Stand Up Show.
On stage, Barry appeared in the successful West End run of A Saint She Ain't, two tours of one-man shows and, with Willie Rushton, Two Old Farts In The Night.
