Customer Reviews

Hilarious and Enjoyable5
I bought this after seeing Ed Byrne on 'Mock The Week' BBC2 and finding him funny. I was not disappointed! There are some absolutely hilarious, rolling on the floor moments on this dvd, particularly the whole section on sleep, but the other bits while not quite as good, are definitely still funny. There's never a dull moment in this hour and half long show and if you like Jack Dee, Alan Davies, Ross Noble, then you'll probably like this! Buy and enjoy, although I can't be held responsible for problems as a result of too much laughing :)

One of the best stand-up performances you'll ever see5
I have a lot of time for Ed Byrne. First of all, he's charming, he's witty, he's animated on stage, and most of all, he's sincere. A comedian that can satirize potentially anything whilst genuinely wanting to look after his audience is a rare thing indeed.

The material in this set is very well thought out, consistently funny and clearly delivered. It's also very up to date, which makes you realize just how much work he must put into the preparation for such a tour.

The only material that gets reused from a previous set occurs at the encore, where he finally delivers the piece that got him the Perrier award in the early nineties. And even then he manages to make it current.

This DVD is a classic.

Quality5
Ed's stuff or what i've seen and heard has always been spot on from Tv spots and ads to stand up and so on. It is fair to say I was over the moon whem I learned of the DVD's release. Ed is a fantastic stand up certainly one of my favorites a very true commedian with enough of short punchs and a few longer gags to keep me smiling throughout. Well worth its cost a few times over buy it today and hope for another DVD tour soon!
