Pappy's Fun Club are Britain's best new sketch troupe. After being nominated for the if.comedy award at the 2007 Edinburgh Festival they appeared on BBC3's Comedy Shuffle, Radio 1's Switch and ITV's Comedy Cuts. This year they starred in their own self-titled show on Radio 4, and a half hour special on Channel 4. They capped all this off with the Chortle award for Best Sketch Act, a national tour, an appearance at the Melbourne International Comedy Festival and a sell out run at this year's Edinburgh Fringe.

La Folie are having a launch party on the 8th of June at The Forum in Sheffield! £2 advance tickets/£3 on the door! Plus the added bonus of if you film some stuff from the night of us, you or anything else connected and send it us, we will send you a free copy of 'Risus Sardonicus'
I hope this finds you in rude health? Keeno’s made a new film at last! But Beware, he was riddled and dosed up on Night Nurse. Deranged out of his mind!
hey Pappy's! Hope life's treating you tip top there mate and the mojo's pumping like a Sanfranciscan who wants to increase his girth :D Now I know you don't have any problems speaking in public but if you did... this might help! Just a little film I edited together for work at the BBC that made me chuckle so wanted to share.

Hi all. While we're here at the Fringe we're producing a daily video diary (you can find it on Chortle, Facebook, YouTube and the Gilded Balloon website). Here's an episode from earlier in the week.
