h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

yeah I was a bit disappointed with the DVD, I think it must be easier for him to perform for american audiences considering most of his humor is very English in its performance

I got the Jack Dee DVD at Christmas as well as the Eddie Izzard one, I thought it was really good It had me in stitches the whole time

Cool, Jack Dee can be good, in the right frame of mind

TK

the DVDs very good, he's not as grumpy as I thought he was

Cool, wouldn't mind seeing that one

TK

hehe it's a goodie...do you like Billy Connolly?

Billy Conolly is a legend I think he's fantastic, second only to Eddie :D I love his 'world tour' series'- I like the mix of comedy and history- shows you can be interested in sciences and history without necessarily being branded a boring old fart

TK

See I thought that series was brilliant! you got Billy Connolly doing what he does best and you got to see history from a different angle

A lot of people think he's past his best, which may be true but he's still brilliant

What about Phil Jupitus?

Hmmm, Phil Jupitus hasn't impressed me with what I've seen, but then I haven't really seen that much.

TK

I really like him but apart from the Buzzcocks he's not really on the TV much

We have a Jongleurs Comedy Clubin Leicester, but it's expensive. Been there a few times though, usually good for a laugh (as you'd hope, it being a comedy club...)

TK

I would love it if there was a comedy club around here

They're fun, but expensive. And I've seen a guy at ours who I've seen on TV a few times, but I can't remember his name.

TK

I think at some point I may look into getting tickets for that live floor show the bbc shows, I mean Glasgow ain't that far away (think it's filmed in Glasgow)

I've seen that a couple of times, it's pretty good Wouldn't mind going myself

TK

aye it would be grand...wouldn't have minded going when Ed Burn was on

He's playing in Leicester soon. Might be this weekend actually, which will be why I'm not going. Would have liked to, though.

TK

yeah that would be cool, I really like Ed Burn

Definitely, only I think he was better when he had long hair... Somekind of Samson thing going on, I feel

TK

I prefer him with short hair I think

Ah, can't knock a guy with long hair :D
