The Four Horsemen of Rising Crime, Global Warming, AI and Culture Wars are galloping towards us. Are we on the road to hell? And can we avoid the potholes? In his brand new tour show 'Fair Cop' Alfie has the antidote to the breakdown of law and order, fake news and the price of baked beans. Somewhere in a parallel universe little Alfie’s natural comedic performance skills were recognised by his doting parents who encouraged and developed his blossoming talent. After several years as a stage school brat Alfie’s angelic face was launched on stage and screen and the rest is history. Meanwhile, in this universe Alfie Moore was told to stop messing about in class before being ‘encouraged’ into the grinding, grimy world of an apprenticeship in the Sheffield steelworks. When recession hit he traded steel for copper by joining Humberside Police. In his 40s the two universes collided when Alfie made a bid for showbiz success – but unfortunately 30 years of shift-work and being punched in the face quite a lot, had left him with ‘a face for radio’. A face not so much ‘lived in’ as inhabited by a settlement of squatters with little regard to property maintenance and repair.

Staring at the Sun sees Simon Evans (Live at the Apollo, Michael McIntyre’s Comedy Roadshow, Simon Evans Goes to Market, One Person Found This Helpful) squinting at an uncertain future, revisiting the blue remembered hills of his youth and trying to stay human as the world around him gets smarter. With the AI singularity looming and “reality” feeling increasingly unstable, Evans looks ahead to the coming shockwaves of technology, and back to the analogue pleasures of hitch-hiking, pub bets, and getting properly lost. Turning his famously dry, surgically precise style on the big modern questions: Are we living in a computer simulation? What happens when your body starts issuing software updates you didn’t request? And is staring straight at a solar eclipse, against expert advice, actually an act of courageous self-sacrifice on the road to true enlightenment? Part philosophical exploration, part nostalgic joyride, Staring at the Sun is a hilarious analysis of reality and trust from a man desperately trying to keep his balance while the floor keeps moving. The tone is unmistakably Evans: provocative, literate, and playfully combative, but also soaked in self-awareness. Evans draws on theories propounded by philosophers and mystics since the days of Plato and Ecclesiastes, casting himself as a public intellectual but constantly undercutting his points with brutally funny domestic truths. Simon Evans is one of the UK’s most respected and best loved comedians who has been at the top of his game for over twenty-five years. His TV credits include two appearances on BBC One’s Live at the Apollo, one on Michael McIntyre’s Roadshow, and a season of Channel 4’s Stand Up for the Week. On BBC Radio 4 his series Simon Evans Goes to Market, delighting audiences with his witty and insightful take on the comedically-unpromising territory of economics, has had six seasons. He is also a regular on Radio 4’s The News Quiz, and various other panel games, and from 1998 to 2002 wrote and hosted eight series of the news satire, The Way It Is. He also stars in One Person Found This Helpful – a Radio 4 show he co-devised with Jason Hazely and Pozzitive Productions, that has fun with on-line customer reviews and hosted Headliners – a regular preview of the following day’s newspapers with two other comedians on GB News. Evans is also in demand as a columnist and has written extensively for The Spectator, The Telegraph and Spiked.

Pianist Rupert Egerton-Smith - Heartlands - Saturday 8th August at 7.30pm Described as a pianist and musician of the highest calibre and commended for the electrifying energy of his performance Rupert Egerton-Smiths path to becoming a concert pianist defies convention. He did not formally study the piano beyond school and spent ten years as he built a career as a strategy consultant. Rediscovering his early recordings, he entered and then won several competitions, including the Bradshaw & Buono International which led to a performance in New Yorks Carnegie Hall. In 2020 Rupert made a major life transition to leave the corporate world and build a career as a pianist and composer. He has performed in many prestigious venues including Paris Salle Gaveau, the Berlin Philharmonie, London Cagodans Hall and recently Carnegie Hall in New York where he received a standing ovation for his performance of Stravinskys The Firebird. Passionate about innovative and themed programming in his solo work, he creates a unique musical experience for audiences through narrated performance, describing and contextualising pieces as well as performing them. Rupert was appointed a Steinway Artist in 2025 and signed to record label Quartz. He will be releasing his recording of Water & Fire in May 2026. Further plans this year include the release of a composed album and soundtrack to the feature film Hide, recitals in the UK and abroad and performances of concertos by Beethoven, Mozart, Poulenc and Grieg.

In the wake of his departure from Steeleye Span, Peter turned his full attention to the Gigspanner Trio. "There's something of the proverbial elder statesman about Peter Knight, in terms of his place in music, which cannot be overstated. It's not just in the quality of his playing... there's a focus on the sheer inventiveness of Peter's playing, in the adventurous arrangements he shares with his collaborators, and in his musical leadership "Gigspanner are pushing at the boundaries, and in the process are making some of the most beautiful music the genre has to offer".
