Arnold Brown - Jokes I Have Known

A package arrived in the mail today with 3 DVDs from Go Faster Stripe in it: the latest Richard Herring, Robin Ince's secular Christmas DVD, and Arnold Brown.

We were tired and the latest Herring is almost two hours long. If Robin Ince's latest was performed in the Bloomsbury Theatre then I have the questionable honour of having done martial arts in a squash court somewhere above his head, which blots out all thought of the performance. Arnold Brown's disc was the shortest, and in these sleep deprived evenings that's what wins out.

The Pub Landlord

One of my Christmas presents this year was Al Murray - The Pub Landlord, a DVD of Al Murray's 2009 show. It's a sign of how I've managed to infect my wife with British humour that she bought this artefact of her own free will. A few years ago, if you'd told her she'd be giving somebody a video of a bald man in a blazer, yelling abuse at (variously) a fat bloke who ate too many crisps, a troll-like man with a good looking wife, and a teenage boy, then she'd have thought you were mad.
