Imagine your doctor decided to swap the stethoscope for a microphone and found out laughter really is the best medicine. Meet Dave Wandless, an observational and satirical comedian who weaves his experiences as a GP into a hilarious commentary on the state of the NHS, the absurdities of modern medicine, and the joys of living (un)healthily.
With a cheerful, cheeky, and self-deprecating style, Dave has audiences wondering if he’s actually a practicing doctor (we think in a good way - they think he should be a comedian!).
After being told by a seasoned comic to "get a life" and a psychiatrist to "get a good strong girlfriend," Dave did one better: he got married, took a 10-year hiatus, and returned to comedy with a prescription for laughter.
Since then, he’s had two sell-out performances at Breakneck Comedy in 2024 and has shared the stage with comedy heavyweights like Craig Campbell, Larry Dean, and Justin Moorhouse.
By day, he's a dedicated GP and university lecturer shaping the doctors of tomorrow; by night, he's the doctor making you laugh till it hurts. Come see why medicine and comedy make the perfect remedy!

Dundee's finest comedian Steve Mcleod burst onto the scottish comedy scene in 2018 and is now one of scotland's rising comedy stars. Steve got hooked into comedy by attending one of our comedian recruitment open days. Since then he has over 100 shows under his belt, performed at the biggest clubs in the UK and has recently supported top names such as Larry Dean, Gary Meikle and Fred MacAulay and now performs all over the UK.
His warm charm and funny will certainly cheer you up.
