White male stand-up
Davies, Alan, 1966-2026
Book
Following 'Just Ignore Him', the memoir of his traumatic childhood, 'White Male Stand-Up' is what happened next to Alan Davies. It's the story of how he threw himself into the joyous and idealistic world of stand-up comedy, leading to a television career, but how echoes from the past, and the thought that everyone might prefer it if he disappeared, saw him repeatedly dismantle everything around him. With a cast of well-known comedians, actors, agents and producers, Alan awkwardly navigates his life from the camaraderie of the comedy circuit via life-changing fame as TV's Jonathan Creek, to the unwelcome realisation that most people know him from a bank advert and think he's had a perm.
