Malawian Daliso Chaponda has blended the slick North American style of comedy he learned while working in Canada with a real talent for brevity, ensuring that his gags, although not one-liners, nonetheless come thick and fast. Like all good comedians, he can adapt his act to suit his audience - on a previous trip to the Midlands, he performed a seriously blue set in a Birmingham strip club, and then headed off to the Greenbelt Christian Festival to regale family audiences!

Jokes include “I moved to the UK because of the BNP - they said the immigrants were taking all the best jobs and all the best women, and I thought, ‘Wow, that sounds like a good deal to me!’”
