UnowPriceless hyped garbage
Frances Chung Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable
Jakoba True to its essence, the characters remain on the same line and manage to entertain the viewer, each highlighting their own distinctive qualities or touches.
Rexanne It’s sentimental, ridiculously long and only occasionally funny
Chris Mooney (dhsb58) Be it discussing Ted Malt & his Double Chin or Hooty Tooyty types such as Davina Jacobson, Jasper Carrot has his audience in his grasp in the 1981 Palladium performance "Beat the carrot." As the Summary states Jasper carrot is "a comedian who's material is as fresh today as it was back then in the 80's." His Conversation Stand up was something new in the 80's. He wasn't out there to tell jokes, gags or one liners, but amusing stories packed with rich humour.The Show is 51 Mins long of which was perfect! - The show didn't run Quickly or out stay its welcome. I won't attempt to explain any stories in detail - as that would ruin it the show. The Performance has recently had a new lease of life on DVD courtesy of Network.Be sure to watch Beat the Carrott...It wont disappoint!
