Tough Crowd, the latest photo exhibition by Dave Brown, opens today at The Strand Gallery in central London.

A collection of portraits capturing the very essence of the lonely, fragile comedian, the exhibition is in aid of the brilliant Afrikids and features a whole host of famous names including the likes of Harry Hill, Lenny Henry, Adam Buxton, Jimmy Carr, Lee Mack and more… including a number of TVO regulars too!

The likes of Noel Fielding, Julian Barratt, Rich Fulcher, Julia Davis, Richard Ayoade, Alice Lowe, Steve Oram, Tom Meeten, Barunka O’Shaughnessy, Sarah Kendall, Dolly Wells, Kevin Eldon, Kim Noble, Neil Cole, Dan Clark, Tony Law, Joey Page and Arnab Chanda join the packed line-up.

The exhibition will run at The Strand until December 15th, and entry is free.  Fans will be more than pleased to know that limited edition prints of every portrait will be available to buy for just £50 (A3) and £75 (A2).

TVO attended the packed out preview tonight, and spoke to Dave about the exhibition earlier this week, so expect our exclusive reports very soon, alongside a competition for a very special prize!
