London Comedy Award Nomination Micky Flanagan: ’If it carries on like this,’says cockney comic Micky Flanagan of his newfound success, ‘I'm seriously considering signing off’... his is an unpretentious, cheerfully direct working-class voice that taps into a high-yield seam of blokeish, impish humour.'

The Guardian: “’If it carries on like this,’says cockney comic Micky Flanagan of his newfound success, ‘I'm seriously considering signing off’...  his is an unpretentious, cheerfully direct working-class voice that taps into a high-yield seam of blokeish, impish humour. His show, which harks back to a time when he – and the UK – were more patriarchal and less pampered than today, panders to traditional tastes. But Flanagan's spiv delivery brings the material to amusing life, and his infantile-delinquent personality is easy to love.”

Humble roots have left Whitechapel-born Flanagan in good stead for some seriously chuckle-some routines, driving even HRH Prince Charles to giddy laughter at the Royal Variety Performance last year. Having taken a comedy course at Jackson’s Lane, Micky went on to hugely successful run of Edinburgh shows, and has toured Britain in 2010 and 2011 with his Out Out Tour. Micky’s autobiography is due to be published later this year and is sure to be an intriguing read, documenting his journey from fish porter at Billingsgate to UK comedy favourite.
