Henning Wehn is the The German Comedy Ambassador to the United Kingdom. Not the easiest job as German’s allegedly do not have a sense of humour. Henning does not find this funny.

Performing stand up in a second language can be ‘a right old struggle’ says Henning Wehn, explaining a title that translates as Mein Kampf. Yet the self-styled German Comedy Ambassador makes it look simple with a show that stretches to puns, whimsy and even, shock-horror, self-deprecation.

Star of QI, Live at the Apollo and Have I Got News for You, German comedy ambassador Henning Wehn gives a hilarious outsider’s view on modern British life compared to his home country. Be it gently mocking this nation's obsession with the housing market or our tendency to laugh off personal failure, Henning is one of the funniest and most popular comedians around. And yes, there might be just the odd mention of the World Cup.
