I could have spent £15 more constructively by getting pissed in an unknown
pub and waking up naked in a ditch[1] instead of buying a ticket for JCC in
Oxfred for this.

It's cringe inducing watching someone who isn't a stand-up comedian trying
to be Billy Connolly.  He's good at what he did but this isn't it.

And then he started making (bad) jokes about PTerry choosing the right to
die.  At which point a good 1/3 of the audience, myself included, walked
out.

If anyone UK was thinking of going - don't bother.

[1]Yes, that has happened.
