BBC is playing Rob Newman's Apocalypso Now set in two parts - it's very good stuff :)

(search for "Stand-up on 7" or "Apocalypso Now")

A short clip (with crappy video background that I knocked up last independence day ;))



(it's not just a massive anti-american tirade, btw ;) ... just a few bits ;))

Thank you for introducing me to Robert Newman. I'm watching the History of Oil on YouTube now. Fascinating. He's also anti Churchill too...well at least not shown in a favorable light.

He's usually quite well researched, though on the lefty-conspiracy side of things (suits me, I often am, too)... and his humour can be hit and miss (hit: Apocalypso Now, miss: The History of the World Backwards... which is a bit too clever for its own good and not very funny).

... but basically, he's worth keeping an eye on :)
