Customer Reviews

A shadow of its former self....2
I had a recording on VHS of this concert from TV, so was thrilled to see it come out on DVD... Until it arrived, that is. They've hacked it to bits. Loads of material is missing and it's far shorter than the original broadcast.

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!5
Pure Connolly magic.

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?2
Having been a very proud owner of the VHS version of this highlight of British comedy, it was a total disappointment to find out that the DVD version has been cut in half! Some of the best bits are still in but I was distraught and had to go and fish out the cassette from the rubbish bin...

Don't buy the DVD if you have already enjoyed the whole programme, otherwise but the DVD and enjoy half the fun...
