The Armstrong's A-Z Guide to Life
|
|
Have you ever wondered how typewriters can rival commercial radio? Why, according to John, it's best to shave only once a week, and with old fashioned soap and water? And what the various repercussions of spring and its extra hour of daylight bring? The BBC created a fantastically cult television series when they filmed the daily operations of John and Ann's double glazing firm U-Fit, the third largest in Coventry. It was here we were first introduced to John's misanthropic musings and no-nonsense attitude to management and his wife Ann's doting loyalty. Now their individual and highly entertaining personalities have been brought to the page, as they ruminate on various aspects of life from asbos to Buddhism, and Chekov to Maltesers.

The Best Of Dave Allen (DVD)
|
|
Dave Allen was an alternative comedian before the phrase existed, an innovator who set the agenda for comedy and comedians for more than thirty years. Give him a stool, a cigarette and a glass of something and he's in his element, reflecting laconically on such diverse subjects as sex, the Irish and God, traffic, smoking, the Bible, life and death. Here he is with his personal choice of sketches, gags and monologues, observing our guilt, weaknesses and doubts and make us laugh at them and at ourselves.
