A shadow of its former self...........2005-09-25
If it was okay for TV in the 80s, how can it possibly be cut from the DVD?
If it was the full programme I would've given it an easy 5.
Don't encourage this sort of thing! Don't buy it. Write to your MP. Lobby the PM.
Your sides will ache after this you'll laugh so hard!.......2003-09-30
Buy yourself a pair of those incontinence trousers he talks about and just sit back, put the DVD on and wet yourself laughing!!!
A real treat!
Why Why Why?.......2003-05-28
Don't buy the DVD if you have already enjoyed the whole programme, otherwise but the DVD and enjoy half the fun...

Nobody actually does the Pasa Doble..........2002-09-20
Some of these routines are now the stuff of legend, including rants about people who write rubbish songs about Scotland ('The Misty Blue Hills of Tiree?? Have you ever seen Tiree? It's like a bloody billiard table!'); rants about Weather presenters (' "And here's a wee cloud"... I know what a bloody cloud looks like! Just tell me, I'll understand!'); Looking for a party in Glasgow ('All you have to say if they don't know who you are is that Jimmy said it was OK'); Visits from the Priest ('Have another custard cream Father, that's what they're there for!'), and of course the changing of the national anthem ('We come from Jibrovia, and we don't give a sh*t; We've got a national debt of 50 squillion pounds, and we don't give a monkeys!')...
I had to buy the DVD as my VHS copy is totally worn out. This concert came just before Billy decided that f-ing and blinding sounded funnier, so probably qualifies as one of the last great performances by 'The Big Yin'...
Having the chance to zap from sketch to sketch on DVD is actually a bit pointless in this case, since watching this performance is a bit like listening to 'Dark Side Of The Moon' in that you always have to watch it from beginning to end.. a must have for any self-respecting fan of comedy!
