Comedy entertainers Bradley Walsh, Brian Conley, Shane Richie, and Joe Pasquale are set to bring their new show to Oxford next spring.

Inspired by the Rat Pack, consisting of Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, Sammy Davis Jr, Joey Bishop, and Peter Lawford, the UK stars will tour as the 'Prat Pack' and be backed by a 15-piece band.

The group will be visiting Oxford's New Theatre on May 22 next year.

"It's an homage to the Rat Pack but brought up to the modern day, and it's a fantastic night."

Mr Walsh was joined by his three mates and the Barry Robinson Big Band for a one-off show at the Palladium in London in March, sparking the idea for a full tour.
