George Egg is the comedian who cooks. This award-winning, multi-sell-out, international-touring performer is bringing us the best bits from his previous acclaimed comedy-with-cooking shows, seasoned with a generous dash of new surprises.

Over the past half-decade George has cooked over a thousand dishes, all of them in front of a live audience and none of them with a kitchen. Revisiting those unlikely environments armed with the chef’s skills he’s honed, expect to learn how to make food on a train with a laptop, in a shed with power tools and in a hotel room with the appliances they unwittingly provide you with. Three plates of gourmet food prepared in the most unconventional of ways, and with the opportunity to taste the results at the end.

It’s time for the funniest recipes and the most delicious jokes!

George has appeared and cooked on ‘Bake Off: An Extra Slice’ (Channel 4), ‘Steph’s Packed Lunch’(Channel 4) and ‘This Morning’ (ITV). He’s made food live on the radio too – ‘Loose Ends’ (BBC R4) a show which he now regularly co-hosts, and he’s even presented an episode of ‘The Food Programme’ (BBC R4).

It is a multi-sensory delight tspend an hour with him” – The Scotsman“ There is a mischievousness about Egg’s humour that is deeply lovable” – The Guardian“ You’ll never look at a Corby trouser press in the same way again. Brilliant” – Jay Rayner
