Gavin Mitchell – aka Boabby from hit TV show ‘Still Game’ – will have patrons in high spirits with behind-the-scenes anecdotes, memories and rib-tickling tales.
The acclaimed actor and comedian became a household name playing Boabby the barman across nine series of ‘Still Game’ – spanning 62 episodes, 21 years and a record-breaking run of live shows at the OVO Hydro in Glasgow. Along the way, he received the Best Actor award at the 2019 Scottish Comedy Awards.

As well as ‘Still Game’, an enduring favourite on BBC and Netflix, Gavin has also starred in TV shows such as ‘Happy Hollidays’, ‘Monarch of the Glen’, ‘The Field of Blood’ and ‘Velvet Soup’, as well as films including ‘Outlaw King’ and ‘Being Human’.

I’m thrilled to have the opportunity to share stories from my glorious career, whilst spilling the beans on all the behind-the-scenes gossip from ‘Still Game’
