Which comedians will you see?

Lots of rising stars and big name comedians like to appear here to test out their new material.

Michael McIntyre and Micky Flanagan have both used it before an upcoming tour, and other names that you'll recognise off the TV include Cally Beaton, Hal Cruttenden, Finlay Christie and Jeff Innocent.

Comedy show onboard the Tattershall Castle

The Tuesday night show typically features around 7 different acts with unallocated seating, whereas the Friday and Saturday shows have 3 or 4 comedians and pre-allocated seats. They also include regular breaks so you can keep your drinks topped up.

After-show entry to POPworld Nightclub

The Friday and Saturday shows also include entry to the POPworld Nightclub which runs until 2 AM.

The boat's resident DJs -- DJ Jagz and DJ Don't Stop -- will have you dancing all night to the latest chart hits and old school classics.

Onboard bar with floating beer garden

The Tattershall Castle is permanently moored opposite the London Eye with a great view of Big Ben and the Southbank. The refurbished paddle steamer doesn't sail down the river, but you might feel it gently bobbing on the water as a big boat goes past.

If you get there early then you'll be able to enjoy a drink on the open deck -- it's like a floating beer garden that sells draught beers, bottled lagers, ciders and wine.

What the critics say...

Sunday Times: "Where big names warm up their routines"; Evening Standard: "Glitzier than your average night of stand-up"; The Guardian: "Guaranteed to book the best"
