Customer Reviews

Utterly Brilliant
I always judge comedy on it's ability to make me laugh aloud when I am on my own, and let me tell Ross Noble is the master of this feat. If you have never seen a performance by Ross then please make it one of your lifes goals. This man is utter genius and he doesn't have to try. His improvisation skills are just incredible and although the DVD's will never be as good as seeing him perform live you can't get much better comedy to sit at home and giggle at. Plus you'll be watching the extras for the rest of your life cos there is so much packed into these 4 discs to make your £14.99 literally the best money you have ever spent.

Great collection - great value - good extras
For ross noble fans this is a real treat, you get a full 3 live shows, a highland fling documentary as well as film of ross in melbourne plus various extras and an interactive quiz, the value for money can't be questioned and the highland fling documentary is particular is very interesting. The reason for a 4 and not 5 star review however is although i believe this to be extremely funny (as everything he does is) i don't think its his very best work, however, it's still greatly entertaining and a must for any fan of the man. Following on from other reviews i personally have had no problems with sound quality on any of the additional discs. Overall a very good collection, 8 out of 10.

pardon?!
Of course its worth buying this set purely for the main feature if your a Ross Noble fan because it is very, very good.

For me though the extra live performances on the others discs are ALL a complete waste of time! the reason being that the sound quality on ALL of them is just pitiful. I have tried altering the settings on my tv and DVD player to no avail. This is a real shame as i thought this pack was superb value for money when i originally got it. It is simply a chore trying to hear what the hell Ross is saying!

The documenatary following Ross round Scotland was pretty interesting stuff though.
