On the back of a sell out international tour of his latest stand up show Desfunctional, including a run at last year’s Melbourne International Comedy Festival, where he was “one of the finest performers”, Ireland’s favourite comedian Des Bishop has completely, by accident, fallen in love.
It’s so cliche..and I hate being one, but I’m infatuated. Like most things you fall in love with, Australia is sexy, distant and unavailable and I sit here in Ireland having a long distance relationship with you.
Comedian Des Bishop is a bona fide celebrity in his adopted home of Ireland and is now ready to embark on his first ever national stand up tour of Australia.
Follow Des as he masters his acerbic observations on life in Australia - sure to uncover many parts of our own identity we don't even know ourselves.
