As anyone who has tried knows, getting tickets for a recording of I’m Sorry I Haven’t a Clue can seem to be next to impossible. A theatre holding a recording can sell out in just 24 hours.

Due to the high demand by fans to see the show, the regulars decided to try and take the show on the road. Following negotiations with the BBC they finally got clearance to use the name, and the ISIHAC stage tour was born.

The tour has been described as a kind of best of show, featuring favourite rounds from the past 35 years. None of the shows will be recorded for broadcast.

The first tour was in 2007, with Jeremy Hardy the guest panellist for all the shows. The tour was a sell out, which cannot be a surprise for anyone.

tour dates
The following are the first known 2009 tour dates and venues. There has been no official announcement of the 2009 tour dates and venues yet. When there is an announcement the remaining dates and venues will appear here.

Each show normally starts at 7.30pm, and finishes around 10pm. Exceptions will be noted when known.

This year Jack Dee will be hosting the Tour shows.

Note: On-line booking agencies can report a show as being sold out when tickets may still be available from the theatre directly.
