One Night Stand Up, Durham RICH WILSON Rich Wilson has loved comedy ever since his older next door neighbour gave him a cassette of Eddie Murphy Delirious. "It was the most mind blowing thing I'd ever heard. My young ears had never heard language like it." His comedy aspirations lay dormant until he got a job as a barman at a comedy club in Greenwich, South London, called Up The Creek. After getting friendly with a few of the comics, a couple of them suggested that he should give comedy a go himself and so in October of 2004, Rich took his first steps onto the stage and into the limelight. Since then Rich hasn't looked back. He is a regular at all the major comedy clubs up and down the country and has become a firm favourite entertaining troops across the world as part of the armed forces entertainment service. In 2011/2012 Rich was selected to support Tom Stade on a Nationwide Tour. "Highly entertaining"-Time Out. "He's a very very funny man"-Frank Skinner.
