A Chinwag with Alex Lowe and Clinton Babptiste

This week, we're joined by the hilarious Alex Lowe and his brilliant psychic character, Clinton Baptiste. A favourite from Phoenix Nights, Clinton, is on tour across the UK. We chat to Alex about his comedy career, from how he developed his characters, to how a performance at a school PTA went wrong, to the point he had to hide in a classroom. We even get a reading from Clinton Baptiste, looking for help from the other side with teaching. 🎟️ Make sure you grab your tickets for our next tour — it’s our BIGGEST and BEST one yet, coming to venues across the UK and we seriously can’t wait to see you all! 🗓️✨ 📍 Dates & Venues: 🎭 October 2025 18th: Manchester, Aviva Studios 🐝 24th: Rhyl, Pavilion Theatre 🌊 25th: Northampton, Derngate 🏰 26th: Hull, City Hall 🎟️ 27th: Reading, Concert Hall 📚 28th: Exeter, Corn Exchange 🌽 29th: London, Hackney Empire 🎡 30th: Worthing, Assembly Hall 🌅 31st: Guildford, G Live 🎶 🎭 November 2025 1st: Torquay, Babbacombe Theatre 🌴 15th: Belfast, Ulster Hall 🍀 🎭 February 2026 14th: Edinburgh, Queen’s Hall 🎻 15th: Newcastle, Tyne Theatre 🎭 17th: Birmingham, Town Hall 🏙️ 18th: Sheffield, Memorial Hall 🧱 19th: Leicester, De Montfort Hall 🦊 20th: Bradford, St George’s Hall 🏰 22nd: Cardiff, New Theatre 🏉 🎭 May 2026 22nd: Salford, The Lowry 🎨 🎟️ Grab your tickets now at 2mrpspodcast.com/live 🎟️ 👯‍♀️ Tag your teacher crew, bring your mates, and let’s make this tour UNFORGETTABLE! 💃🙌🔥 Learn more about your ad choices.
