DVD Description
The World Of Lee Evans DVD features the award-winning comedian Lee Evans in his first ever TV series. The star of "Funny Bones" and "Mousehunt" delivers his unique brand of physical comedy in six short dramas spread over four half-hour programmes. Whether he’s meeting his girlfriend’s parents, trying to woo the girl next door, working his first shift at an all-night garage or picking up a dodgy hitchhiker, Lee inhabits a surreal and hilarious world of sight-gags, nervous tics and escalating hysteria.
Product Description
United Kingdom released, PAL/Region 2 DVD: LANGUAGES: English ( Dolby Digital 2.0 ), English ( Subtitles ), WIDESCREEN (1.78:1), SPECIAL FEATURES: Interactive Menu, Scene Access, SYNOPSIS: The unique talents of one of Britain's brightest comedy stars are on display in this hilarious video. Lee Evans burst onto the stand-up comedy circuit as the winner of the prestigious Perrier Award, and here he delivers his unique brand of physical humour in a series of short comedy dramas shot on film. Ordinary situations are turned into scenes of hysterical and mind bending comedy, whether it's meeting his girlfriend's parents for the fist time in 'Meet the Folks' (co-starring Prunella Scales, Tony Selby and Caroline Aherne), sharing a sleeping carriage with his girlfriend on a train in 'Off the Rails' (co-starring Jo Unwin), or working in an all-night petrol station in 'Late Shift' (co-starring John Thomson). This DVD also contains 'Mr. Confidence' (with Samantha Beckinsale) and 'Special Delivery' (with Amanda Dickinson and Andy Lindon). Evans' performances are always at a frantic pace, and he has been likened to all four Marx Brothers rolled into one. ...The World of Lee Evans

Format:DVD
I absolutly love Lee Evans and this DVD had me in stitches! I did find this comedy a bit like Mr.Bean in places but im not complaning I loved it!! Fav bit for me had to be the one at the petrol station where Lee evans and John Tompson are miming along to a tape << never fails to make me laugh! Also the bit where he's a car salesman and his actions match with the music! This also makes it funny when actions match the music on top. I also like the Mr.Confidence one where he has an aproach mat for different situations, pure genius! I also am a fan of early 90's comedies. It just takes him to make a funny face to have me laughing so a definate thumbs up for any lee evans fan or comedy lover!

A lot of people criticise Lee's TV show 'The world of Lee Evans' as being 'unfunny and not clever' but to be honest, here we see a whole new side to the comic genius, and one for the best. Both his stand-up shows and this deserve 5-stars because they are so witty and imaginitive. Whether it be Lee meeting his in-laws for the first time or spensing the night in a 24-hour Garage Service Station, you are likely to find this excellent dvd very, very funny.

Totaly different from his normal stand up comedy. Not that good really, perhaps fot the younger generation (early teens). However saying this there is a few scenes where i did "crease", but very few compared to his stand up. What i did like is that in his stand up he describs funny actions and real life scenes and he actually puts them into a real life situation in this dvd. For example; the petrol station clerk at night, whos behind the glass and cant hear the customer.
No bad language, probably better for family viewing!
