Pam Ayres brings her current show to Glasgow thirty-five years after she first appeared on the ‘Britain’s Got Talent’ TV show of its day, ‘Opportunity Knocks’.
Pam’s shows sell out wherever she appears, and her current show includes material from her bestselling books, SURGICALLY ENHANCED, WITH THESE HANDS, and THE WORKS, along with new poems and stories. Pam’s books still regularly appear in the bestseller charts, and many of her poems feature in school textbooks around the world.
She’s a regular broadcaster on BBC Radio 4 in programmes such as Just A Minute, Quote Unquote, Loose Ends, and three of her own series Ayres On The Air. On TV Pam has recently been seen on QI, The One Show, The Paul O’Grady Show, and Countdown.
‘You're only gradually aware of verse that rhymes: hers is a sophisticated art. And there's no whimsy: her eye is accurate, her tongue has a sharp edge.’ Scotsman
‘Forget the corny comedian: Pam Ayres is a proper poet, whose wistful, funny, and perceptive verse captures both the joy and unfairness of life.’ Sunday Times
