But, for some time, Tommy has wanted to host his own TV chat show – one with a difference. It has all the ingredients of a normal chat show but there was a catch – neither the host or the audience know the identity of the guests until they walk out on stage! The Tommy Tiernan Show is recorded in front of a live audience and will include stand-up from Tommy, live music and plenty of chat….. with a little help from fellow comedian Fred Cooke thrown in.
