The Royal Pug Comedy Club!

8pm. 18+ Thursday 23rd October 2025

Yet again we continue to bring you the best of the best from the UK comedy circuit in the very intimate setting of upstairs at The Royal Pug – this gig sells out every time so come and see what all the fuss is about.

This month’s comedy crackers are Jason Neale, Samantha Day and Peter Brush!

Do note line-up is subject to change

Peter Brush

A highly distinctive performer and deft writer of finely crafted jokes, Peter Brush unassumingly takes the stage with his slight bespectacled frame and scruffy hair, before consummately conquering it with an arsenal of razor sharp quirky one-liners and peerlessly original routines, all delivered in an amusingly awkward fashion.

Formerly a BBC New Comedy Award finalist, and winner of Harrogate Comedian of the Year, Peter performs at clubs all over the UK and occasionally abroad. He has also written for BBC Radio 4’s ‘The News Quiz’, ‘The Show What You Wrote’ and ‘Newsjack’ and was the tour support for Alexei Sayle’s 2020 show, other acts he has supported on tour include Jonathan Pie, Jason Manford, Arthur Smith and Paul Sinha.

★★★★½
”Compellingly hilarious.. first-class gag writing… an original and achingly funny voice” Chortle

”I love Peter Brush, what a comic” Jason Manford

Samantha Day

Samantha has six children. Three of them are stepchildren, which means that they have been brought up properly, by someone else, and are therefore nice.  But her three are a lot better at shoplifting.

She is 53, but looks younger because she's had a lot of work done. Some people have said that that makes her a bad feminist. They don't know the half of it.

She is an alcoholic and hasn’t had a drink for 17 years. And that's ok - she doesn't need to drink in order to socialise or dance.  Happily, she doesn’t even need to drink to wet herself.

For nearly thirty years, Samantha was an accountant. She gave it up when, despite her best efforts, she only managed to sleep her way to the middle.  

“The real deal, a fresh voice tempered by a life full of square peg experience” - Nick Page, English Comedian of the Year

Jason Neale

Hailing from Leicestershire, Jason Neale is as adept at MC-ing for wide range of venues and audiences as he is delivering tight, punchy and hilarious 20 minute sets.

Since starting Stand-Up he has gone from strength-to-strength as a performer, gigging throughout the UK and adding improv/Sketch-Writing/Character strings to his comedy bow.
