The multi-award-winning Welsh wonder and star of the Royal Variety Performance, Rhod Gilbert, is back with his hilarious and critically acclaimed show ‘Rhod Gilbert and the Award-Winning Mince Pie’, available to own on DVD from 16th November 2009 courtesy of 4DVD.

Since his Perrier Newcomer-nominated debut show - ‘Rhod Gilbert’s 1984’, Rhod has been haunted by critics describing him as a ‘serial fantasist of ex-prime ministerial proportions’.

So Rhod decided to abandon his fictional tales of Llanbobl, and try living in the real world for once in ‘Rhod Gilbert and the Award-Winning Mince Pie’, for which he received a nomination for the highly coveted if.comedy ‘best comedy show’ award in Edinburgh 2008.

Rhod’s mince pie experience starts at a service station somewhere in the UK at around 2.40am. He finds himself aggressively demanding to know more about an ‘award-winning mince pie’ on display in the corner.

Suddenly aware of what he is doing, Rhod is forced to acknowledge that he may be having a very mild nervous breakdown. How did it come to this? He doesn’t even like mince pies.

Filmed earlier this year at the Bloomsbury Theatre over two sold out dates, this DVD tells the slightly ridiculous story of how one mince pie broke the camel’s back.

The DVD includes a Llanbobl featurette, the fictional Welsh town which forms the basis of most of his stand-up. Plus Rhod’s hilarious ‘luggage rant’, which is one of the hottest stand-up clips on YouTube attracting almost 4.5million views.

According to leading comedy website Chortle, Rhod appears at number six on its top ten comedy clips list and is the only British comedian featured.
