Frank Skinner made his television debut in 1988.

Star of QI, Live at the Apollo and Have I Got News for You, German comedy ambassador Henning Wehn gives a hilarious outsider’s view on modern British life compared to his home country. Be it gently mocking this nation's obsession with the housing market or our tendency to laugh off personal failure, Henning is one of the funniest and most popular comedians around. And yes, there might be just the odd mention of the World Cup.

Summary
Stewart Francis is a Canadian comic famous for his razor sharp one-liners and impeccable sense of timing. He's a TV regular on such programmes as Mock the Week, Live at the Apollo, and Michael Mcintyre’s Comedy Roadshow. Much like Tim Vine, he fires out hilarious one-liners. And, as some clever comics do, some very thoughtful ones at that.

Simply my favourite comedian
What made the experience of listening to Tour de Francis: Live the most enjoyable?
His delivery and honed performance skills, timing
What other book might you compare Tour de Francis: Live to, and why?
This is not a book but a recording of his stand up tour of that name. Therefore, the other gigs that are on DVD would be the most comparable as would recordings of other punsters doing their act like Milton Jones, Tim Vine etc
What does Stewart Francis bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you had only read the book?
His delivery and honed performance skills, timing
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
Absolutely and have, more than once
Any additional comments?
Bring out the other three DVDs in the same way please, as soon as possible
