Amazon.co.uk Review
Jimmy Carr--Live Stand Up 2 is yet another demonstration of just why its star is becoming one of Britain’s most popular live comics. Filmed at London’s Bloomsbury Theatre, it’s an act that’s not for the easily offended, but is bursting with laughs and some rapid-fire comeback lines.

Along the way, he delivers his sharp one-liners with admirable consistency, in his trademark deadpan style. Continuing to joke around subject matters that others would choose to leave well alone, he undoubtedly sails close to the wind, but succeeds through a combination of well-written material and superb delivery. His act holds the attention right from the off too, with an opening that sees him communicating with his audience via a giant screen. Trust us, it works.

And there’s an unexpected highlight on the DVD too, which almost eclipses the main event. The Comedy Idol programme sees Carr judging a stand-up talent content, which throws up genuine hilarity along with some of the strangest comedic acts you’re likely to have seen.

Mix in that, with the main act and generous dose of further bonus material, and Jimmy Carr--Live Stand Up 2 not only offers tremendous entertainment, it’s excellent value too. Heed that 18 certificate, though.--Jon Foster

DVD Description
Following the huge success of Jimmy Carr Live, the multi award-winning and critically acclaimed comedian Jimmy Carr returns with a brand new live stand-up DVD.

As the face of Channel 4, Jimmy has risen to become one of the most original and distinctive stars of British Comedy, developing the unique brand of perfectly timed one-liners and deadpan delivery for which he has become so well known.

Recorded live at London's Bloomsbury theatre, Jimmy unleashes brand new material upon his audience that is just too rude for TV, taking his dry and sardonic wit and delightfully crafted jokes to a whole new level.

Pure genius
Jimmy carr both on and off the telly is a complete deadpan genius. This second stand up, following from last years sensational 'Jimmy carr live' dvd offers more of the same in deadpan and politically incorrect jokes. absolute gem. I cannoect recommend this enough, Jimm carr is the present and future King of comedy

Brilliant, a superb second attempt.
Bottom line is if you liked Jimmy Carr's first stand up dvd then you will like this too. Pure genius. If you are easily offended then this isn't for you, but you would probably already have realised that. One thing that disapointed me slightly was when Jimmy tried to pass off a Ricky Gervais joke as his own, one about Carol Vorderman that Ricky used at one of the TV Awards ceremonies a couple of years ago. That's the only downside! BUY IT!

As good as the first.
I was there for the recording and it is hilarious. Same level of humour as the first, many new jokes with some previously seen re worked and re-introduced. If you want more Jimmy....buy this.
