Amazon.co.uk Review
Although Graham Norton does warn of impending "rudery" at the start of Live at the Roundhouse, he never really plunges into the murky world of "blue" comedy. In fact, much of Norton's stand-up is cheeringly similar to his routine on the Channel 4 series The Graham Norton Show. He chats with audience members with a cutting yet strangely inoffensive manner. He's deliciously insincere, shallow and vain--about himself and the world at large (or as Norton puts it, "a problem shared is gossip!"). And he's best when he's riffing off the top of his head like a Variety Gala Eddie Izzard. The pre-prepared routines don't quite have the charm and sparkle of the Norton we know and love for sheer spontaneity, but there's still lots to cherish; the difference between gay and straight lager, clothing crises and extracts from a diary he'd written at sixteen are particularly hilarious. Best of all is the atmosphere that Norton generates at the Roundhouse, which transfers perfectly onto the small screen. Waves of hilarity ripple through the crowd, especially when he gets out Kittyphone to call a personal ad with everyone happy to be in on the joke. --Ian Watson
