Thursday 2nd-Wednesday 22nd December

Bush Hall Presents Milton Jones @ Bush Hall
One of London's best venues Bush Hall is once again playing host to some stellar comedy talent this month. Tonight's line-up features award-winning one-liner merchant Milton Jones., supported by superb actor and comedian Kevin Eldon (Big Train, Black Books and Alan Partridge), Fringe favoruite Richard Herring, the alternative Simon Munnery and top character act Colin Hoult.

Tonight's Christmas special features one half of cult comedy duo Adam and Joe, Adam Buxton, plus Mr Kennedy from The Inbetweeners more commonly known as Waen Shepherd and Brett Domino, the man behind the iTunes hit Gillian McKeith song.
