Mike Osman’s Jethro: Whatever Happened to Denzil Penberthy? brings a character-based comedy show to the Bournemouth Pavilion on 13 August 2026. It carries on the rural humour of the late Jethro, one of Britain’s best-loved West Country comedians, with his familiar characters at its heart.
What to expect
The show keeps alive Jethro’s warm, story-led style of comedy, built around the characters — Denzil Penberthy among them — that made his rural humour so popular. The full running order is confirmed by the venue closer to the date, so it is worth checking the Pavilion’s official listing for the latest details.
Planning your visit
The Pavilion is a handsome art deco building set just above the Lower Gardens, a short stroll from the pier, the beach and the heart of town, with plenty nearby for a meal or a drink beforehand. Book tickets through the venue’s official listing, where you will also find the most up-to-date times and prices.
