“Like all brilliant comic creations, when John Shuttleworth stepped on to stage you totally believed in him. Everyone knew him to be the beige-wearing, married to Mary, Sheffield maverick of advancing years.

His Fawn Again tour is John’s guide to growing old with dignity. From memory loss to wearing socks with diamonds on, this is the essential guide to coping with the inevitable onset of death! And, of course, most of his observations are set to the military rhythm of his trusty Yamaha organ.

John tells us that growing old isn’t all bad. It leaves you with more time to do things like checking the water level at the reservoir and getting keys cut.

With all this excitement it’s no wonder he took a 20-minute nap. You had to be there.”
