Chris Purchase

An award winning comedian who has performed across the UK, delighting audiences from Inverness to Plymouth. As seen on BBC 2✲S Robot Wars
Chris has been making people laugh his whole life but decided in 2009 that really he was jolly good enough to start getting paid for this malarky, since then he has performed with some of the greatest comics in the world, been in two sell out Edinburgh shows, entertained thousands of radio listeners and once held an owl. He now resides with his lovely family in picturesque Lichfield where ducks outnumber people.
