Truly amazing...
14 July 2005
Steve Coogan's comedy in general is difficult to put into words if you're explaining it to somebody who has never experienced it before. He is not an everyday comedian, nor does he do live shows or TV series that have one big laugh and nothing much in between. Throughout his whole career he has produced amazing, side-splitting comedy which never lets up.

Throughout this show he takes comedy to another level. The Alan Partridge act at the end is obviously magnificent but with Coogan there rarely is a highlight to anything he does. It's all one big, bright shining light that's in your face! The whole comical package stuffed into this show will make you laugh until you think you can't laugh anymore. A lot of people who watch stand-up comedy alone may chuckle to themselves or simply find it amusing but not express it by laughing, however this show will bring your laughter out. It will make you laugh out loud when you're the only one sat in your living room watching it. It will show you a completely different approach to stand-up comedy and make you think twice about comedy in general.

The Kate Bush Medley at the end of the show by Partridge tops it off very nicely because Coogan is so good at singing badly! It's totally hilarious! I am a massive Steve Coogan fan and always have been. This man is quite simply a showbusiness phenomenon and is the sole reason why I myself am now pursuing a career in alternative comedy acting and script writing. I am also due to attend the exact same university as he went to in Manchester where he grew up just like me.

Thankyou Steve for yet another fantastic piece of alternative comedy and thank-you for being the main inspiration behind me pursuing a career in this field. I simply would not be able to produce the work I do if it wasn't for seeing all of your work and appreciating it with a vast amount of enthusiasm. You are a true legend.
