About me: My name is Eric James Winchester,I am a classic entertainer. In and around entertainment circles I am affectionately known as Mr Winchester.Keep it simple, or 'classic' as I like to say.I am photographed above, wearing the black wig, whilst Tommy, my sidekick wears the white wig.As we are all too aware in comedy and entertainment in general there is a lot of shit being performed at the moment.Now what I do, what I beleive in and what I admire is classic entertainment. I'm talking about proper costumes that wig I'm wearing cost me 30 quid and the tash cost me 25.Tommy's was cheaper, but he's still on benefits, but you see what I'm trying to say, we make a bit of effort, I watch some of these 'comedians' about nowadays and alot of them perform their 'acts' in their going home clothes, which I think is wrong. Also I do actual jokes, proper funnies, not this surreal bollocks that's so popular at the moment,I'm old school and I'm proud of it, bit like Freddie Star, who I greatly admire.I'm currently on tour with my side kick Tommy, who's new to the game, if I'm honest his timing's rubbish but he's a hard worker and doesn't mind me chucking knives at him, which is something I'm learning as I go along. We'll be performing our new show, featuring acts that I have discovered from all round the world somewhere near you in the near future, so keep checking the site for dates. We're in Kettering on Tuesday at an old peoples home, if you can get there.
Eric James "Mr Winchester".And Tommy.
Who I'd like to meet: Barrymore, but about 6 years ago, before he murdered someone.
Freddie star, I'd like to hang out in his villa in Spain and do Kareoke with him.His Nazi stuff still brings tears to my eyes.
Tarbuck, maybe golf? But I don't play, so maybe draughts or something.
Les Dawson, not alive I know, but that man could play the piano badly really well, 'Classic Entertainment'!
Sergei Bubka, what that man has done for Russian athletics is phenomenal.
Look, I thought I told you about the breathing. I can give you breathing lessons but it'll cost you. The going rate I believe is 50p a breath. That suit?
I'm down in London next weekend and the week after, so if your about maybe we can catch up then and perhaps discuss how many breaths you can afford...x
Bloody Classic that was. You, Mr Winchester, are not only a very funny man but an EXTREMELY sexy one too. Many congratulations on a funny, sexy show. Especially the dance finale. Cor. And that Tommy aint half bad either! x
I don't know if you realised Mr Winchester but I do comedy as well.
I hate to blow my own trumpet but i'm quite skilled, so if you ever need any tips I have normally locked up the cafe by 3:30pm so you can call me after that.
Although I don't like anyone ringing me after 6:45pm. Apart from Del.
Thank you for thanking me Mr W! I thought you and Tommy were absolutely fab last night, you made me giggle tonnes! Would like to have seen Tommy again afterwards... he's very convincing, I forgot what he was like before the show! Loved your dynamic together! Good luck in big E! x
Ah, just the jobbing actor treadmill...nothing very exciting to report.
I'm sure your show will be fan-bloody-tastic. However, I will bring a bag of rotten veggies with me ...you know, just in case! Tee hee. Looking forward to seeing your cheeky wee chops Mr W. x
You are quite literally the loveliest person in the world. Thanks again for being so gallant on Sunday. Hope last night went well. Unfortunately Bodeans didn't/couldn't live up to expectation. We pretended we were enjoying it because none of us could bear to admit it wasn't like it is in our heads. It was a bit sad x
Now look. You have your politics on Women's Comedy, and I have mine. Lets just leave it at that. I dont want to get bogged down in some sort of Germaine Greer rant about whether nervous breakdowns are funnier in a woman or a man. Of course, it IS women, as they do things like post pork chops and cut off all their own hair. Men just burn down buildings and threaten to throw themselves off the top of radio transmitters.
If any of the troupe want to enter Funny Women, they are more than welcome to. Except that 'lady' that does the trick with the bucket and the stepladder. Thats just taking things too far.
