The comic brings his funny, searing, award-winning punch to the two years we’ve all just been through in the region – twice – when he performs The Essex Variant. This high-octane show brings nuclear-powered belly laughs and pants-pee observations that prove laughter really is the best medicine (in fact, Russell reckons it’s probably hospital medicine ). .He’s a regular on Channel 4, BBC and ITV: all the usual shows you see funny people on. He is also a writer, actor and presenter.
