  A side splitting double bill of live stand up from the star and creator of the Office Ricky Gervais. Animals: Ricky Gervais' first ever live stand up show performing at The Bloomsbury Theatre this is a fresh and funny live stand-up from one of Britain's funniest comedians.... Politics: ""Most comedians slog around the country for fifteen years playing to students drunks and even women in grotty venues with the vague hope that someone will give them their own TV show. I'm doing it the other way round. In my show I will be doing my usual brand of brilliant irreverent yet observational comedy covering such universal subjects as meeting Jack Nicholson driving around in limo's and not putting my hand in my pocket once. Sounds great to me!"" - Ricky Gervais 'Another exquisitely observed persona' - Sunday Times 'Excruciatingly bowel-achingly funny!' - Observer

• I'm Alan Partridge--The Complete Series | DVD | (08/10/2001) from £8.04   |  Saving you £11.95 (148.63%)   |  RRP £19.99

  I'm Alan Partridge finds Steve Coogan's media creation back in his native Norwich, having lost his beloved chat show Knowing Me, Knowing You, and now reduced to the pre-Breakfast slot playing old T'Pau and Soft Cell singles to an audience of farmers and all-night bakery workers. He's also lodged at the Linton Travel tavern, whose permanently smiling manageress, bland decor and themed buffets are redolent of what vast tracts of England have become. He's very much at home there. While there's much media satire in Partridge's pitiful pitches of programme ideas to the BBC ("Inner city sumo? Monkey tennis?"), I'm Alan Partridge is more a bleakly hilarious take on Modern Middle English Man, irascible and profoundly bored. Between innumerable moments of high, wild comedy, such as a disastrous video Partridge does for a boating agency and an encounter with his one (insane) fan, the most telling moments of the series come with his efforts to fill his dismally empty days, taking a trouser press to pieces, staring at the astro turf at an owl sanctuary or walking to a service station to buy windscreen cleaning fluid just for something to do. All this proved a little too darkly uncomfortable for mainstream audiences--yet Alan Partridge was probably the finest British comic creation of the 1990s. --David Stubbs

• Harry Enfield & Chums Complete Collection Season 1 & 2 | DVD | (21/05/2007) from £20.00   |  Saving you £-0.01 (N/A%)   |  RRP £19.99

  Enfield's new show is in many ways a continuation of Harry Enfield's Television Programme and had the same comic-cuts style of presentation. Old favourites Wayne and Waynetta Slob Tim Nice-But-Dim Kevin (the teenager with tons of adolescent attitude exasperating his parents played by Stephen Moore and Louisa Rix) the Old Gits and Mr Chomondley-Warner were joined by new characters including the two Lovely Wobbly Randy Old Ladies (Enfield and Burke) with their mock-shock cries of 'Young man!' when they ceaselessly invented the notion that a male with whom they were conversing had said something risqu; and the Self-Righteous Brothers (Enfield as Frank Doberman Whitehouse as George) two vociferous and intensely angry individuals who put the world to rights from their pub armchairs while discussing celebrities by their surnames only.
