The Jimmy Carr comedy cult marches on with the release of his fourth live stand-up DVD, Jimmy Carr In Concert, available through 4DVD on Monday 3rd November.
Featuring 90 minutes of fresh, uncensored material, the eagerly anticipated new title also delivers additional never-seen-before DVD extras from Britain’s foremost, multi-award-winning joke technician.
Bone dry, diffident but never not funny Jimmy Carr knows how to make a crowd explode into laughter with strings of exquisite and generally rather tasteless one-liners.
Jimmy has blossomed into one of the most polished performers in the business, with his impish drive to mock and amuse his audience shining through in this new DVD, recorded live earlier this year at London’s Bloomsbury theatre during his 2007/2008 Repeat Offender tour, in which he performed to over 250,000 people throughout the UK.
No one writes sharper or meaner jokes and no one delivers them better than Jimmy. He commands his audience with twisted little aphorisms, “the sort of thing you might find in a fortune cookie baked by Satan” (Sunday Herald), with no-one escaping his biting, withering sarcasm and take-no-prisoners approach to subject matter. With his machine gun fast delivery, Jimmy walks a fine line with truly outrageous gags that would be thoroughly offensive if not so expertly delivered with an ironic glint in his eye, demonstrating the length and breadth of his comedy credentials.
Of the new title, Jimmy says: “This DVD is exactly the same as last year’s except every single word. It’s rude, crude and offensive but those aren’t the only reasons you’ll enjoy it.”
Slick, sick and definitely not for the easily offended, Jimmy offers a true masterclass in comedy as he takes his dry and sardonic wit to a whole new level. He unleashes a stack of tongue-in-cheek gags which more often than not are completely un-PC – but all successfully carried off by crediting his audience with enough intelligence to be in on the joke and able to keep up.
