Cuh, you can’t move for comedy festivals round these parts these days.

Still, it appears Dartmouth’s Flavel had the idea first, cos its second comedy festival kicks off today (that’s Wednesday) with Comedy Films: Then And Now, at 7pm.

Peter Richardson, festival patron and Torquay International Comedy Film Festival bigwig, will be presenting one of his earliest films, A Fistful of Travellers Cheques, along with the first screening of his latest comedy Call Mickey, which recounts the bizarre adventures of a black male escort. We’re laughing already. No, honestly.

Both films will be followed by a question and answer session with the writers and actors. Click below to watch a clip from …Travellers Cheques.
