Apollo Cancellation Sparks Comedy Concerns | Liverpool News
Description
Adam Rowe blasts the cancellation of “Live at the Apollo,” calling it a devastating blow to British stand-up — a show that launched generations of comedians and gave vital exposure to new talent. Though he wasn’t surprised by the BBC’s cost-cutting move, he insists there must be a dedicated home for live comedy, whether it’s the BBC or someone else. With beloved shows like “Blankety Blank” also vanishing, the future of mainstream comedy visibility is in serious doubt — and the industry is rallying to find a new stage.
