Funhouse Comedy is back at the Lyric Rooms, Ashby-de-la-Zouch on Friday for more fun and laughter.

 Topping the bill is the somewhat cynical and gloomy Mike Gunn who, despite this, has the ability to get the crowd on his side, however far he pushes! In his first Edinburgh Festival Show, he appeared as a funeral director!

He has appeared on numerous TV programmes, including Michael McIntyre's Comedy Roadshow (BBC1), Celebrity Deal or no Deal (CH 4), and Harry Hill's TV Burp (ITV). He has also been a contributor for The Guardian and written for Time Out, The List and Match of the Day Magazine and was support for Lee Mack on a huge theatre tour.

More details are HERE.

Ashby Rugby Club is hosting a Bonkers Bingo Night on Friday night.

Proceeds from the event will go towards Ashby Netball Club's fundraiser for the Kids Village charity.

This has already raised £30,000 and now a new target of £40,000 has been set ahead of the club's Netball Marathon record attempt being held next month.

More details are HERE.

St Helen's Church in Ashby is hosting Choral Evensong for Candlemass on Sunday night.

The church choir will be joined by The Choir of Leicester Cathedral.

The sermon will be given by The Very Revd Karen Rooms, Dean of Leicester Cathedral.
