Al Murray boozes in Bletchley

Staff at The Red Lion were delighted to be visited by The Pub Landlord after winning a competition in partnership with pub operator, Punch, and brewer, Ramsgate Brewery.

The popular comedian helped Guy Plumb and his bar staff by serving behind the bar, meeting customers, taking photos and signing autographs.

Guy said: “We are a huge fan of Al Murray and his visit to our pub was a real treat. It proved a big draw for customers as well as a vehicle to raise awareness of our pub.

“The beer from Ramsgate Brewery is a real favourite with customers and, thanks to Punch and the brewer, we have won a fantastic prize.”

Duncan Garrood, CEO of Punch added: “We’re always trying to offer our publicans something different, and we felt this prize draw certainly did that.

“We are delighted that Al Murray could visit Guy Plumb and his team and pull some pints behind the bar as well as draw diners into the pub to meet one of Britain’s most recognisable comedians.”
