Harry Hill's Babbacombe Theatre show nearly sold out as extra matinée added

Comedy fans are being offered a second chance to see one of Britain’s most recognisable funny men as Harry Hill brings his “New Bits & Greatest Hits” tour to Babbacombe Theatre this September.

Following phenomenal demand, the evening performance at 7.30pm on Sunday 14 September has already sold out. But an extra matinée show at 2.30pm has been added, giving fans another opportunity to catch the slapstick star in action.

Marking what Hill jokingly calls his “Diamond Jubilee lap of honour,” the show promises a riotous mix of brand-new material and classic routines, blending chaos, nostalgia and absurdity in equal measure.

Nothing is off-limits in the fast-paced set – from tiramisu and crab sticks to SCART leads and the Culture Wars. Longtime fans can look forward to much-loved routines including Interspecies Tennis, The Space Shuttle Trip, and Nan’s Knitting Catastrophe.

There will also be surprise guest appearances from cult favourites like The Knitted Character, Abu Hamster, and the return of The Badger Parade – along with music, mayhem, and perhaps even a chance for an audience member to share the stage in a one-off comedy double act.

Matinée tickets are expected to sell quickly. Seats can be booked online at www.babbacombe-theatre.com or by calling the Box Office on 01803 328385.
