One of the best stand-up comedians working today
Extraordinarily vitriolic, relentlessly misanthropic stand-up from the "king of blue" - Roy Chubby Brown. Of interest to me was the fact that in all the out-of-character scenes Mr Brown appears very relaxed, intelligent and mild-mannered. I suggest he has created the ultimate alter-ego, a true Hyde, a vile-mouthed misogynistic northern comic with an incredible stamina and some truly evil gags. If you can get past the obscenity (or just plain enjoy it) you have to admire one of the best stand-up British comedians working today. Unlike Bernard Manning, Brown has a self- deprecating humour and his famously "anti women" jokes are designed to backfire and expose him as a the sad excuse for "maledom" all men will secretly understand. Again, unlike Northern comics such as Manning, Brown is a true weaver of tales and a master of timing and metaphor. He also has a profound intelligence and a masterful memory. He is also painfully funny. A comic genius at work. Just don't let yer mum see it!!
