There was another Chris Langham, nothing to do with the People Like Us guy who ended up falling foul of the law but now virtually impossible to Google search as a result, at least in my experience. He was reasonably well known on the stand-up circuit at the end of the eighties, played different cities and so on, and I saw him live in Coventry in some comedy venue which no longer exists, upstairs at a pub near the city centre as I recall. I think he briefly turned up either on radio or maybe late night TV on something or other, but he never really made the transition. Live he was side-splitting, a combination of wild and terrifyingly dead pan with a very dark sense of humour typified by his rendition of Louis Armstrong's Wonderful World growled whilst apparently staring directly into the abyss. He finished the show stark naked, marching back and forth across the stage with a lit firework projecting from his arse while singing 'there's no business like show business,' - sparks everywhere. I've never seen anything like it. I seem to recall him resembling Keith Richards to some extent. He looked like a man who had seen things.
Does anyone remember this guy? I'm honestly beginning to wonder if I haven't had a brainfart and imagined the whole thing, or at least got the name wrong.
