Yippee, Zippos is in town but I have not seen any of the flyers for discount tickets around the area. I'm wandering what the cheapest way to get tickets is.

Looking at the website children are ?11 and adults ?14 if going for the front view so for 2 adults and 2 children that is quite alot plus the online booking fee. So I'm wandering if anyone has seen the flyers they usually have around and what the prices advertised on those are please. If anyone can let me know that would be great.

Thanks, liz

Ah the annual pilgrimage to Zippos - love it and v excited for taking our brood apart from Norman and his budgies with the inevitable line 'these birds make the money, these birds' (pointing to the assistants) 'spend the money'. Never mind the animal rights activists who like to protest each year we need some sister power to get this joke out of his routine ...

If anyone's still looking the cafe on the Rye had some vouchers .... well hidden just the far side of the till where they keep water jug etc. That was a couple of days ago though. On vouchers restricted view tickets for example with the voucher - ?5 for kids and ?7 for adults. Possibly similar prices to online costs but you can use them at the ticket office and avoid online booking fees.

KikiMac - We hit the 3pm Sunday show and yes the bird joke was missing - hooray. However, it was left to the otherwise fantastic clown to introduce some 1970s inappropriate humour during the dads' section making signs that one dad was homosexual as he sat behind another, rather than at the side of him, and continued his hugely not funny gestures for the next few mins - doh! Other than that was fantastic and a full to busting house added to a great atmosphere.

Oh it was great but I agree about the clown bit with his gestures. My other half got picked at the 12 o clock show yesterday to go down and participate in that act.

I like Norman's ending comment each year: 'You're never too young, or too old, or too cool to enjoy Zippo's Circus'. I think he should also add 'or too posh' ;-)


Mrs TP did you know that Norman was on This Is Your Life in the 1990s? There is a link to it from his Wikipedia page. Yes, I do need to get out much more.

    • Cheers, they could also publicise the filming there - Entertaining Mr Sloane in particular. That's Beryl Reed, a friend of my late uncle.
    • Have you seen there is now information on the two notice boards in Camberwell Old Cemetery about the history of the cemetery and who is buried there
    • Everyone’s Invited made for shocking reading and, your right, the story never seemed to gain much traction. The whole thing felt very shady. 
    • Unfortunately there are two ways of examining this, if we even had the figures. The first is simply to look at the revenues paid to the Council and see if the costs (in terms of setting it up and recovery from it, including administrative cost) are less than the revenues. This would be quite simple to do assuming we could agree the proper allocation of those costs. But additionally we have the amenity cost to those Southwark residents either (a) losing amenity value through e.g. disruption, and secondly losing amenity value by being excluded from parts of a public park for an extended period in summer. That is not a fiscal cost to the council and clearly they don't give a damn, but that would be the only way of judging whether this event was of overall net benefit to Southwark residents, the only people who the council should be 'working' for. Don't hold your breaths.
