Chewin’ the Fat fans are in for a treat as a star of the show visits venues across Tayside and Fife.
Karen Dunbar, known for playing characters such as the lonely shopkeeper, the flustered school teacher and Betty, the inappropriate pensioner, will be touring the region in September in An Evening With Karen Dunbar.
As well as her stint on Chewin’ the Fat, the comedy legend also starred in her own programme, The Karen Dunbar Show, between 2003 and 2006.
Chewin’ the Fat was the birthplace of Still Game’s iconic characters Jack and Victor, played by Ford Kiernan and Greg Hemphill.
The show originally started as a BBC Radio Scotland series but later moved on to TV screens.
More recently, Dunbar has appeared in the stage show Calendar Girls and a cameo in Still Game Live: The Farewell Tour.
