NOEL Fielding, star of multiaward- winning comedy duo The Mighty Boosh, is to appear in Southampton on his first live solo tour in five years.

Expect a magical mix of Noel’s unique brand of standup comedy, live animation, music and some of Fielding’s best-known TV characters (such as The Moon and Fantasy Man) when he takes to the stage on November 16.

There will also be muscular support from the loose stylings of Mike Fielding (Naboo/Smooth) and the physical lunacy of Tom Meeten (The Mighty Boosh/ Oram and Meeten).

Tickets go on sale for the tour, which also includes a date at Bournemouth International Centre on November 28, this Friday.

Noel is also behind Noel Fielding’s Luxury Comedy, and his other TV credits include The IT Crowd and Never Mind the Buzzcocks.

His film credits include the BAFTA nominated short Sweet, the debut feature from Mighty Boosh director Paul King, Bunny and The Bull and Horrid Henry: The Movie.
