Reviews
"He's premier league"
Times
"Relaxed, visual and hilariously funny"
Time Out
"Smart, unpretentious stand-up with the co-star of Phoenix Nights"
Guardian
"His easy patter, affable demeanour and assured stage-craft acts as the perfect foil for his astute eye for detail in the everyday absurdities of life, sprinkled with a few well-placed flights of fancy. That, allied to timing that is Swiss-watch perfect, makes for a formidable combination."
Manchester Evening News
Inspired by Dave’s fascination with the vagaries of the English language, this hilarious new show examines many of life’s situations where words really don’t come easy. These include tongue-tied parents explaining the facts of life, ridiculous newspaper stories, rubbish school trips, magazine poems, adolescent chat-up lines, TV news speak and an extended selection of song lyrics that range from the lazy through surreal to the ridiculous. Throw in a “Champion the Wonder Horse” sing-a-long, a wildly eccentric granny and a sausage and bean bake and you have all the ingredients for a rich and spicy comedy casserole or as Dave would describe it “a sort of Lexicon-carne ............ sorry!”
