David Mitchell, Royal Geographical Society
David Mitchell is famed for his droll wit, intelligence and innate awkwardness. Along with fellow comedian Robert Webb, Mitchell is part of the comedy duo behind cult Channel 4 sitcom Peep Show. His role of loveable loser Mark Corrigan won Mitchell a BAFTA and an army of enamoured fans.
Mitchell's quick quips make him a firm favourite as both host and contestant on a range of comedy panel shows, including Have I Got News For You?, Q.I. and Would I Lie To You?.
Mitchell's popular weekly columns for the Observer have been collected in this new book, along with some original thoughts. Thinking About it Only Makes it Worse explores the foibles of everyday life, and their capacity to cause stress, discomfort and panic. "Is there anything to be done about the internet?" Mitchell ruefully asks; "Why is every film and TV programme a sequel or a remake?" he bemoans.
Come along and see the comedian discuss this new book to find out.
