COMPERE Simon Clayton, once described by Loaded magazine as, “like a bottle of HP sauce, fat, brown and fruity”, introduces a line-up of top stand up comedians at Downstairs at the King’s Head, in Crouch End, on Saturday.

Acts include Gareth Richards, a regular on Frank Skinner’s Absolute radio show, Sean Percival, an ex-welder from Dudley and the mischievious Carey Marx, with his take on our gloom and doom culture.
