Zoe Cousin: Paul Sykes Is Back on the Family Patch

Paris. Panama City. Pontefract. Pyongyang. He’s been about a bit. But now he’s back on the family patch; it’s like he never went away. Join Wakefield’s infamous hardman Paul Sykes on a journey about survival, self-discovery and being a big fish in a big pond (Wakefield is the 11th largest city in Britain, when you consider wider districts). You might laugh, you might cry, you will learn how to punch someone in the f***ing earhole. As seen on BBC Three. BBC New Comedy Awards 2025. 'Raucous and genuinely hilarious' (EdFringeReview.com).
