Britain's Got Idiots is the stunning debut DVD of Andy Parsons, the star of Mock The Week and Live at the Apollo. Recorded at the Lyric Theatre, Shaftesbury Avenue at the zenith of his sell-out UK tour. Britain's Got Idiots proves once and for all that Andy Parsons is not only the topical comedian of his generation but a damn fine dancer.
Reviews
Sorry, this movie sucks
A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.
A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.
An old-fashioned movie made with new-fashioned finesse.
Being a fan of quite a few of his jokes on Mock the Week, which he is of course is one of the regulars along with Hugh Dennis and Russell Howard (and before he left, Frankie Boyle), I was keen to see him doing stand-up. Andy Parsons plays to a sell-out audience at the Lyric Theatre, Shaftesbury Avenue as part of his tour, I was expecting it to have some mention of the talent show nearly in the title, but it was just many other subjects. He does a lot of topical comedy about what Britain has turned into and become over the years, his observations of certain subjects, and suggestions as to how we can make things better. He also points out some members in the audience, what they look like, their personal lives and what they did to get to their seat, all of which adds up to a humorous and quite enjoyable show. Good!
