GREAT folk entertainer and funnyman Richard Digance will be performing at Fareham's Ferneham Hall on Sunday.

One of the great entertainers of the 70s, along with Billy Connolly and Jasper Carrott, his long career has been acknowledged through numerous awards within both the music and entertainment industries.

The awards include everything from a BAFTA Nomination as a television entertainer to a Gold Award from The British Academy of Composers and Songwriters in 2003 along with Midge Ure and Sir Cliff Richard.

Richard has supported Steve Martin in the USA and Robin Williams at the London Palladium and is included in the Virgin Anthology of Songwriters for his important contribution to British comedy song writing.

The Sunday People voted him one of the Magnificent Seven of Comedy alongside the likes of Tommy Cooper and Bob Monkhouse.

Richard continues to perform his unique evening of songs, rhymes and stories.

There are no support acts, no gimmicks; just one man with a treasure-chest of stories collected through over thirty years in the business from his days as a lowly BBC comedy writer to his regular dictionary corner spots on Countdown.
