£22 Lenny tickets are not going to make me laugh... (From Dudley News)

£22 Lenny tickets are not going to make me laugh...

WHY has it taken Lenny Henry so long to visit Dudley Concert Hall?

His humour does not appeal to everyone particularly when Dudley folk are the reason for his jokes.

Perhaps he realises that after 32 years of national fame he can benefit once again from the generosity of the people of Dudley at £22 per ticket.

There's only one Bank on his mind and that's not the Bitter sort, when he recalls his memories of Dudley.

I make no apologies for my thoughts.

His coming home is long overdue and there may not be the welcome on the mat to wipe his feet on.

Between now and October perhaps Mr Henry may consider changing his act - we are not as stupid as other parts of England may think, and maybe he is ready to apologise.

Many thanks.
