A comedian who swapped Las Vegas casinos for the UK's waterways is now touring his show in Southampton.

Joel Sanders, who performs as Angry Boater, will be at The Attic on September 18.

Having lived on a canal boat for 15 years, the former US touring comedian is known for being featured on Channel 4's Narrow Escapes.

Last year, he took his narrowboat onto the sea in the middle of the night, which was filmed for series 2 of the daytime series.

He said: "I’ve lived on a canal boat for 15 years, prior to which I was a comedian touring the US with the plan of being the first Brit to gig in all 50 states - I managed 40.

"I performed everywhere from redneck bars across the Deep South to the casinos of Las Vegas and worked with many of my comedy heroes, including Robin Williams."

When he swapped Las Vegas for the UK's waterways he started to develop his 'Angry Boater' show.
