British Comedy Classics

Alan Partridge certainly knows how to entertain the ladies and this clip proves the point, mousse is not for anything other than eating out of the bowl!

Holidays don’t get any better than luxurious cruises in the balmy tropics with sunshine, islands, jewel-toned skies and nature at her exotic best. If the visual treat wasn’t tempting enough, there’s enough aboard cruise liners these days to give you the ultimate in indulgent decadence. Luxury passenger vessels now boast shopping malls, giant swimming pools, rock climbing arenas, spas, specialty restaurants, and sports facilities. You can even surf aboard the ship if the fancy catches you.

If comedian Lewis Black has his way, your next cruise could also be a nonstop laughter riot.

Consider it a case of taking his Aruba promotions a little too seriously if you will, but the acclaimed comedian is set to take his routine to the Caribbean in late 2010.

Lewis Black is well known for his angry rants and simulated mental breakdowns, and stands out for his effective use of hyperbole and sarcasm. Profanity isn’t taboo either, and there’s hardly any topic that’s off limits for him.

The Grammy award recipient has hosted and appeared in a number of live and telecast shows. He was also part of a team that included Robin Williams, Kid Rock and Lance Armstrong that visited Iraq and Kuwait in support of American troops in 2007. The latest addition to his schedule is a 7-day cruise from Miami to Mexico and the Caymans.

The programme, which features Black and several of his stand-up comedian friends, has already generated an excited buzz across media. So sign up as soon as you can for a happy holiday that’s literally fun-filled.

Billy Connolly has been one of Britain’s most well loved comedians since his first appearance on Michael Parkinson’s Saturday night BBC1 chat show where his joke about a man burying his wife bottom side up so he had somewhere to park his bike, brought him instant commercial success.

He became a good friend of Michael Parkinson and made a further fourteen appearances.

In the same year he signed a record deal with Polydor Records, and as well as releasing live comedy albums, enjoyed hit singles including parodies of Tammy Wynette’s song D.I.V.O.R.C.E.  and In The Brownies to the tune of the Village People’s In the Navy.

His popularity continued throughout the 1980’s with live stand up performances at The Secret Policeman’s Other Ball (1981), Live Aid at Wembley (1985) and Comic Relief (1986).  In 1987 he completed his first world tour, including six nights at the Royal Albert Hall in London, which was documented in the Billy and Albert video.

In 1989 he married the Not The Nine O’ Clock News comedian and psychologist Pamela Stephenson and in the 1990’s branched out into acting and has since appeared in such diverse films as Indecent Proposal (1993), Mrs. Brown (1997), for which he was nominated for a BAFTA, The Last Samurai (2003), Lemony Snicket’s A Series of Unfortunate Events (2004) and The X-Files: I Want to Believe (2008).

This year Billy Connolly returns to the stage to perform stand-up with eight nights at London’s Hammersmith Apollo.
