The term circuit legend is overused, but Norris rarely departs a stage without leaving it torn to shreds in his wake.
A master of the craft, Norris may not be a household name, but then very few really good comedians are these days.
Ben's TV credits include "Never Mind The Buzzcocks", "They Think It's All Over" and "Mock The Week".
"A cast iron guaranteed headliner" - Londonisfunny.com "A wonderful disgrace of a human being" - Daniel Kitson.

Caroline C reviewed Basingstoke Round Table Comedy Charity Fundraiser Gig for Duchenne UK @ Basingstoke APOLLO Hampshire RG24 9NU which happened on 8:00pm on Fri 10th Oct 2025.

The best comedy nights make you forget everything - where you are, the time, your worries. This was one of those nights. I even forgot I was in a beige function room of a slightly dreary corporate hotel. Highlights were the compere Pat and the extraordinary President Obunjo - I was in convulsions. In a good way. Well done The Jokepit! More of the same please
