Saw this DVD only once when my nephew brought it with him one holiday and loved it. Wanted to have my own copy as I love his stand up stuff as well as mock the week. As well as the main show, there's also a few extras on there too, so how can you go wrong!!!

Such a brilliant stand up comic and performer, if you like mock the week then give this a go..........can't wait to see him live in October!!!

Amazon shipped it fast!
I love Dara, he is by far in my top 10 comics of all time!

Loved his show, one of the best comedians in the country

buy it now

Could not stop laughing from the moment he introduces himself, to the moment he finishes his encore.

The best remedy for a bad day/bad week/bad anything. Highly recommended!

To quote his Irish driving law skit:
"We've got three stages before arrest. The first is up here [gesture] where we say 'You don't things by the book, but we like your style'. The second is about here [gesture] - 'Ah, now don't go pushin' it'. Then it ends about here [gesture] - 'Right, thats it, you're commin' with me".

This is O Briain at his funniest and his audience interaction is poetry in motion . Also included in the extras is his set from live at the Apollo with Jack Dee . This is sublime and worth every penny .

Masterclass of stand up - you won't buy better. The guy is just so at ease up there his confidence just adds to the enjoyment.

In short, one of the finest comedy performances available right now. O'Briain is a very intelligent man (he did Physics and Maths at University) and it really comes through in the act.

The performance begins with a half-hour of banter with the front row; thankfully the audience members he picks on are interesting! The rest of the performance also calls on the audience occasionally, which gives the act a relaxed, unscripted, friendly air.

I can't wait for his new DVD!

Dara o'briain is a man that is intelligent and witty and his stand up show is very much about relating to the audience via interaction and asking questions and then going into a story,it isnt rehearsed,its improvised on this basis and leads to some very entertaining yarns,i have to confess that i didnt laugh the house down but i thought it was entertaining for the most part,some of the show dragged slightly but in the end this is worth a watch,some will get more out of it than i did and some may get less but i state again,that this is worth a watch.
