Harry Hill Kidz Show: How To Be Funny – For Kids!will offer hints, tips and anecdotes for children who fancy themselves as a bit of a joker, with the self-styled floppy collared loon Harry Hill on hand to run through his dos and do nots, as well as offering kids the chance to try out their comedy skills.
Harry said: “I can’t tell you how many letters I get from children asking me how you become a stand-up comic, which is partly why I wrote the Matt Millz books. Now I’m taking it to them direct! Brings your jokes and an umbrella – there will be fun!”
