Bobby Davro ,and he was in electrifying form with jokes and songs .He sang a Johnny Mathis song for my mum When I asked everyone to applaud the acts at the end of the show people just started singing I could walk 4000 miles again (A song he got everyone to sing during his wonderful set .Also thanks to the other acts on the bill Lewis Schaffer,Hurt & Anderson ,& Anil Desai
