		Such is the regard in which Vranch is held as an improv comedian that he has acted in improv shows at the Royal Court Theatre and Ambassador's Theatre with Eddie Izzard.
		Vranch's connection with Paul Merton goes back to the early 1980s when they performed with The Comedy Store Players (a group originally formed by the Canadian comedian and actor Mike Myers) and the association continues to this very day with Vranch being part of Paul Merton's Improv Chums show.
		For Vranch one of the plus sides of his career in comedy is that he gets to travel around the world.

	Emporium Of Mirth (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19)
		To hear regulars such as host and drummer Rowland Rivron, bassist Mitch Benn and keyboard player Richard Vranch, along with guest stars including comic musician Rich Hall and Squeeze’s front man Glenn Tilbrook, construct great instrumental pieces from nothing more than shouted words from the audience is inspirational.
		While undoubtedly fun, Rivron’s desperate attempts at humour throughout the recording are obvious fair enough, occasionally he will come out with a fantastic come back to a silly comment by Richard Vranch, for example, but on the whole, what may not come across in the edited show is that he tries too hard.
		The format of the show is nonetheless great, with original musical concepts such as restyling existing songs (Kylie’s “I Should Be So Lucky” Hedrix style, anyone?), and a section in which the cast attempt to guess which bassline Mitch is offering.

	James Aylett's diary: 15th August, 1998
		Anyway, Richard and James went to see a show about Peter Cook while Alison and I saw Pondlife, which I'd chosen because a friend of my sister's was in it.
		We ate pizza, we discussed hair, and we walked until we needed new feet; finally Alison wandered off with a big net to catch an appropriate bus (probably using quantum tunnelling to let through unsuitable ones), and I went to watch Steve Frost, Richard Vranch, Steve Steen and some other bloke improvise for an hour.
		It could have fallen flat - it is, after all, dependent on a combination of suitable audience suggestions and timely inspiration - but it only did in one or two places.

		As preparations go, Sweeney, Vranch, and Frost seem to be taking it easy in the run up to their first trip to the Chinese mainland.
		What they “do” is a live form of the TV classic, with regular nightly slots around Britain and Periodic forays onto the ex-pat circuit.
		There is no chairman (“ That would just slow down a live show,” says Vranch), and jokes can often stray into less politically correct territory than mainstream television channels permit.
