That's really good great character funny lines and rarely for critique a character who is unaware of his faults

Just maybe needs to be going somewhere have an overall storyline?

Thank you mate, I totally agree, my problem is I never script, I always get a cameraman and just improvise the whole thing. That's my style, but I agree, I need to up it.

you may also be interested in another character of mine. Garry Potter the street wizard

The improving is great and that's a rare skill.

I'd say do what Curb did and write in just one line, the last one so you've got something to aim for.

The obsessing on the haircut was neat!

And where was that horrible hotel.

That hotel was in Old Harlow, I was at a birthday party the night before and stayed there. Took my camera and just decided in the morning that I'd walk around whilst my girlfriend films me.

Opening joke Laughing out loud

The Street Wizard is a great name.

How did you move that bus?! :O

Good stuff :)

That moving the bus trick took me many years to learn! Zaps all my energy. ;)

You did that off the cuff?

Seriously impressed

Everything I do is off the cuff, there are 5 episodes in total on YouTube of Danny Lyer, also my Garry Potter material and The only way is NOT essex, I always improvise dialogue and pretty much actions. I'll see something and think, "ah, lets film this here because this'll be funny" etc etc. I also edit my stuff too.

And thank you by the way, its nice to have positive feedback and I appreciate it

You're pretty good. And I watch your videos all the way through, regardless of their length, which is great and very rare! But I do think the next level up would be tighter editing, so you only show the absolute best stuff.

Yeah I agree, I want to film in random locations, at Football stadiums, Southend seaside, shopping centres, places where I can get myself into awkward situations with the general public, a lot like what Sacha Baron Cohen does. I think if I actually sat down and wrote a script and plot they'd be a lot better instead of just improvising. I just feel sometimes lines and plots become a bit robotic when rehearsed or planned, I like spontaneity. Thanks for watching the videos all the way through though!

Like I say a lot of improvisers give them selves a few points to hjit and then improvise towards them

This advice should not be applied to swimming

HAHA, I'll bear that in mind
