If you enjoy a good old hearty chuckle, then you'll love "Gervase Phinn - Tales From The Dales - Live [2007]". Rare amongst its stand-up comedy contemporaries, this live show is an intelligent and wonderful portrayal of everyday life through the eyes of small children. The highly literate & self-effacing Gervase is a delight to watch and this DVD is an absolute must have for all parents, grandparents and teachers this Xmas!

I have read a few of Gervases' books which are very warmly & humourously written, his grasp of the english language is brilliant. So I was looking forward to seeing the man himself "live" on DVD. I wasnt dissapointed, his stand up routine is as funny & warm as his writing.He understands and obviously likes children which I think is maybe rare in some school inspectors! If you like children & get the gentle Yorkshire humour, buy this DVD now!

Very funny, but needs sub-titles
Gervase is very good but if they do anymore DVD's they need to sub-title them. Not everyone in the world speaks Yorkshire! Read more

Yorkshire 'Gods Country' so yorkshire men believe.
