The manic comedy stylings of Perrier Award-winning comedian Lee Evans (FUNNY BONES, MOUSEHUNT) are on full display in this, his first ever TV series. Evans consistently strikes comedy gold as he extracts surrealism from the most mundane of situations; whether it'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. Living up to comparisons to Norman Wisdom and the Marx Brothers, Evans delivers his rapid-fire wit, nervous energy, and physical humour at an alarming pace.

Different is the word I would use. Certainly not the same as his on stage appearances which, I have to say, there are very few who can match Mr Evans! This DVD is more along the lines of the classic pre 1950's comedy routines of visual clumsy performance comedy (Charlie Chaplin, Jerry Lewis etc.) which doesn't quite fit the modern audience (in my opinion). Worth a view, but you won't laugh too much if you're expecting traditional Lee Evans stage routines.
