Des Bishop does standup routine in Chinese comedy club - in Mandarin

After eight and a half months of learning the language, Des Bishop does an all-Mandarin routine in a Chinese comedy club. It seemed to go down well…

Well known Irish-American comic Des Bishop has been in China for the bones of a year, immersing himself in that country's culture and language for a forthcoming RTÉ series titled (imaginatively) 'Des Bishop's Chinese Revolution'.

Now the In The Name of the Fada and My Dad was Nearly James Bond star has posted a new video on YouTube in which he demonstrates his newly-acquired Mandarin skills.
