Yet one sunny day in the middle of all this, he suddenly suffered a brain seizure. This led to the discovery of a tumour the size of a cherry tomato, and a rather pressing need to undergo major neurosurgery.
The experience has left him with a story to tell and a few things that he’d like to share with the room, and that’s exactly what he’s doing in his new show On I Bang – billed as a tale about surprise, fear, luck, love and qualified medical practitioners.
Miles' previous tours include the acclaimed Fibber In The Heat, Miles Jupp is The Chap You’re Thinking Of and Songs Of Freedom.
