Thank you Jack and Adam (standing in and doing really well) for entertaining us and telling us such great stories, that always surprised us at the end. I realise I have had a privileged upbringing with only certain experieces of life, so it was good to hear experieces of others who have had a tougher life, sharing what it has been like, with a lot of humour. Great stories, both of you, and great fun! Thank you

Went to the show after seeing the lads in a taster show earlier in the week and was not disappointed, they both are very funny and very different in their comedy style.
If you like good northern comedy these are the lads for you.
Don't think they will be stuck in a loft next year, look forward to seeing them both on tour one Day

Great split show from two talented comedians. Hilarious storytelling that left me in stitches and even some cracking donkey material that tied both halves together - brilliant!

Jimmy and Jack were the most hilarious start of a day! Absolutely loved the comedy and of course all the Greek references from Jimmy! Seeing this show was the best decision I've ever made at 10:30 a.m. on a Saturday!

Their timing is impeccable, their material is sharp and insightful, and they have a remarkable knack for turning the simplest of observations into comedic gold. Jack and Jimmy effortlessly balance the line between clever and relatable, making their humor accessible to everyone in the audience. It’s this universal appeal that makes them truly special.

Jimmy and Jack split the bill to share well crafted stories of growing up on the coastline of North West England. Funny and engaging - well worth the early rise!
