March with Red Dwarf’s NORMAN LOVETT, however, are still
available at time of going to press.
NORMAN is a veteran of the stand-up circuit. He
played the original Comedy Store on countless occasions - once supporting The
Clash, which he sees as a personal career highlight. Television credits include
his BBC2 Sitcom 'I, Lovett' and Paramount Comedy's 'Asylum',
though he obviously most well-known for portraying the ship's computer Holly in
five series of 'Red Dwarf' (including his recent reappearance
in the twelfth series last year).
He has received his fair share of broadsheet praise, with The Guardian describing his act as 'exquisite stand-up comedy', and The Times saying 'Lovett turns aimlessness into an art'. In 2013, he performed alongside DOGGETT & EPHGRAVE in a reading of their sitcom pilot ‘Nick & Joe’ (that also featured Michael Barrymore) at London’s Soho Theatre. He could recently be heard in the BBC Radio 4 Comedy 'To Hull and Back' with Lucy Beamont and Maureen Lipman.
