Customers who could be "easily offended" have been urged to stay away.

A promoter for the show said: "He’s still rude, he’s still crude and this time he’s turning headlines into punch lines as his rip-roaring brand of banter continues to burst bellies across the country.

"Chubby doesn’t hold back from sharing his outlandish views on news, women and gender, sailing so close to the mark, even the most seasoned of fans will be left gob-smacked."

The controversial comic has been in the news recently after he declared: "I'm not a racist" while dining at an Indian restaurant.

Tickets for his Southampton show cost £31.50 and ticket holders must be 18 or over.
