Product Description

Multi award-winning comedian, Dave Spikey, filmed 'Live' on his sell out nation-wide tour.

They say that Laughter is the Best Medicine and 'Doctor' D Spikey is here to administer a massive dose straight onto your funny bone. Humour lies in the antics of everyday life and Spikey's 'Best Medicine' is full of brilliant anecdotes and observations it's quite amazing just how funny the world around us really is through the eyes of one of Lancashire's finest.

Spikey spent over 30 years in the NHS and so amongst the stories of school days , cheese addiction, monkeys on bikes , llamas on the loose , dancing dobbers and a crash course in 'jollyphonics', he delivers hysterical stories about hospital life including his recent experiences as a patient with a 'below the waist' problem. Our former 'biomedical scientist' bears all and quite literally holds nothing back ......

Dave certainly gets close to the bone but in over 90 minutes of brilliant ramblings he never oversteps the mark HILARIOUS.

Synopsis

The PHOENIX NIGHTS star and popular 8 OUT OF 10 CATS panelist returns for another fantastic sell-out show. Spikey's critically acclaimed BEST MEDICINE TOUR sees the Lancashire funnyman prove -with a little help from his background in Biomedical Science- that a good laugh is sure to cure what ails you. Recorded live in 2008, he covers topics as bizarre and far-reaching as guinea pigs, cannibals, cheese, and problems... down there.

5.0 out of 5 stars Brilliant - one of my favourites, 30 Jan 2010
By Morris Day (Herts, UK) - See all my reviews
Best Medicine tour took a while to come out, I saw the show live twice and this is a great recap of an excellent tour. Mr Spikey is on fine form throughout and his humour never fails to impress me.
A few recycled bits from his other shows but not enough to bother me.

It's a shame clearance wasn't forthcoming or granted for the encore of the live show - fantastic p--- take of some famous songs with terrible lyrics. My memory of that will have to be enough.

Certainly worth watching and catching Dave on tour when he next does one.

4.0 out of 5 stars Dave On Top Form, 21 Dec 2009
By DL Productions UK (Merseyside, UK) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)      
Dave Spikey is better known for his role in Phoenix Nights with Peter Kay, and this is his stand up comedy show, which he makes funny observations about life, the NHS (where he worked), holidays and other things that annoy him. The funniest thing about the show is his newspapers with funny headlines.

Dave has a great persona, he's friendly and fun; and knows how to work his audience. He does a lot of jokes and doesn't over-participate his audience - and has a dry wit which just cracks me up.

This is a good show, but there are no extras, so it doesn't have much come-back-to factor. I will probably re-watch this as it was very funny and worth watching.
