Product Description

Jeremy Hardy, comedian, writer, columnist and person almost able to use email, brings you four hilarious slices of wit and wisdom culled from the very best of his double-Sony-Award winning show "Jeremy Hardy Speaks to the Nation." Jeremy Hardy relates to his audience on matters ranging from the mundane to the extraordinary in his 4th series, imparting on his audience, with the sense of irony and hilarity that his won him two Sony Awards, the key to a better life. We await with bated breath his final answer to life's biggest questions in this, his tantalizingly as yet untitled 6th series. Produced and directed by David Tyler, a Pozzitive Production for BBC Radio 4.

Wonderful! Fantastic! Cuttingly truthful!5
I heard this series when it was originally broadcast on Radio 4 a good many years ago and I *loved* it! In fact, I have been unwittingly reciting gags from it ever since. I love Jeremy Hardy and his wonderfully comic socialist view on life and its little absurbities. He is my very own comedy god!

This tape compromises four of six, I believe, episodes from the series. Unfortunately, they have included How To Be A Father Part II without including Part I, which is annoying in of itself, and also I found Part I even funnier! But that's life for you. Regardless, please buy this tape if you enjoy Jeremy in any way, shape or form, as you will not be disappointed! It's just one of those series that makes you smile and laugh so much your sides hurt - and that's always a good thing! I just hope the latest series makes it to tape soon!

Clever, funny and TRUE5
Jeremy Hardy sums up the mood for all sane people in Britain.

His outlook upon life, religion and 'attitudes towards each other' is correct to most people's thinking I hope (it certainly is with me). Maybe it's a south London thing, but I hope not.

It's clever in that his strong views are masked by his interjections of 'dumbness' I think you could call it.

This is the most recent tape and although all 5 are great, this one has the most resonance.

Jeremy Hardy Speaks to the Nation5
Jeremy Hardy is one of only a small number of comedians that not only make jokes, but makes intelligent points about modern society, government, and social change. This audiocassette collection contains 4 episodes from Series 2, originally broadcast in 1995. Very funny, thought provoking and worth buying.
