Thursday 11th June 2009 (from 8pm)

The line-up for June 11th is as follows:

• ROGER MONKHOUSE - Only Fools & Black Horses is delighted to welcome one of the most original and distinctive acts on the comedy scene as the headliner for our June gig. Roger Monkhouse is a consummate stand-up who employs a deadly combination of charm and menace to exert a masterful control over any audience.
• "his laconic delivery shields an engaging persona and an enquiring mind" - The Guardian
• “unfailingly entertaining and skilfully able to pull punchlines, seemingly, out of thin air" - Chortle
  

• Jim Smallman - One of the Midland’s best young comedians, regular compere of the Giggling Badger clubs, Jim was deservedly a finalist at this year’s Leicester Comedy Festival awards. He was the very first act at Only Fools and Black Horses when he compered the November debut gig last year, and we’re delighted to welcome him back.
• “Anarchic and matey in equal measures, Smallman boasts a masterful rapport with the audience and clearly takes much delight in pushing the comedy boundaries... his manic energy was easily picked up by the punters” – Coventry Evening Telegraph
  

• Liam Mullone - Leicester born Liam Mullone is a former grave digger who's now the obituarist at The Times. He has won several stand-up awards and also writes for shows like BBC1's Milk Run, as well as appearing on ITV’s Take the Mike, and BBC Three’s New Talent Awards.
• “A clear sign that the cult of laddism may be fading. Mullone deserves credit for shoehorning Victor Hugo and Matisse into his surreal act… will hit the bigtime.” – London Evening Standard
  

• Matt Hollins (MC) - Matt headlined our April gig, and we’re delighted to have him back to compere this month’s event. Matt’s dry, deadpan delivery is offset by sharp, quirky observations and ideas. He’s a comedian who has found his unique voice and persona.
• “Matt treads his own path, subtly turning the mundane events of his life into something absurd.” – Leicester Mercury
