The Ken Dodd
Happiness Show
Andy has been making guest
appearances with Ken Dodd since January 2002, at
dozens of major theatres and concert halls around
Britain, including the Birmingham Hippodrome,
Manchester Opera House, The Grand Theatre
Blackpool, The Brighton Dome, The Royal Concert
Hall, Nottingham and the Philharmonic Hall,
Liverpool.

Doddy is a
legendary comedian and his performances are
famous for going on into the small hours. The
house is always full and the atmosphere electric!
