Tonight I went to see #MarkSteel in his live show.We had front row seats. After 10 minutes I needed the loo. I got up to leave quietly but he humiliated & embarrassed me, so after I could not go back in. Mark, if old lady gets up, to discreetly go to the loo, don’t shame her like me. It was cruel.

#MarkSteel is a very funny comedian & also comes across as a completely decent bloke.

And he's a #Palace fan.

Another reason to be cheerful!

Grand evening at the #MarkSteel gig last night in #Leeds
Very funny, and thought-provoking.
Third time we've seen this wonderful comedian and fine human being. I'm so glad he's out of the woods now.
