LIVE AT THE APOLLO SERIES 9



(Trevor Noah)

Series 9 of Live at the Apollo kicks off with its six episodes on August 12 at 21h35 on BBC Entertainment (channel 120 on DStv)

The first episode of this cutting edge comedy series will feature South Africa’s own Trevor Noah.

The roll call of stand-ups who have performed in front of a live audience at the world famous Hammersmith Apollo plays out like a who’s who of comedic royalty, and the new season is no different. Each episode sees a stand-up legend act as compère and perform to the audience, before introducing two of the best stand-ups currently on the comedy circuit

In the first episode one of comedy's true legends, Eddie Izzard is the host as he introduces two of comedy's biggest stars, South Africa's Trevor Noah and Devon's favourite son Josh Widdicombe
