About this event

Join us for a very special evening at Conway Hall as Ben Elton discusses, with David Mitchell, his one-of-a-kind autobiography.

What Has Ben Elton Done…? For the first – and only – time, Ben tackles this question head on in his frank, forthright and hilarious memoir. Taking a deep dive into his life and times - both private and public - to reveal the true stories behind iconic hits like The Young Ones, Blackadder and We Will Rock You; his pioneering routines hosting Saturday Live, which birthed a revolution in stand-up comedy; and so much more.

After living sixty five years on the planet, forty-five of them in public, tickling many funny bones and getting on a respectable number of wicks, Ben has a lot of stories to tell, and he tells them unvarnished and uncensored – because that’s who he is.

David Mitchell is a BAFTA Award-winning actor, writer and comedian who has starred in many of the UK's best-loved TV shows, including Peep Show, That Mitchell and Webb Look and Upstart Crow. He is a team captain on Would I Lie to You? (BBC One), the host of The Unbelievable Truth on Radio 4 and one of the Observer's most popular columnists. Unruly: A History of England's Kings and Queens is his first history book.

Please note: Book and Ticket option inludes a hardback copy of What Have I Done? (RRP. £25) which will be available for collection at the event.
