Ok and a second bit

This one features jokes about condoms, depression, badgers, Back To The Future etc.
Comments are indeed welcome!
Really good personally prefered part one but both still funny glad you had a good night mate.
You've got a great natural comedy persona - I think you'd make a good comedy actor.
You're voice is funny (and I don't mean that as an insult) it's recognisable, which is really important in comedy.
Good work, Stu. Great delivery, sweet jokes and a nice rapport with the crowd. Thought you could have done more with the mic/phone gag. And what was the deal with the bear. Is the joke that it never paid off?
Will add to the plaudits, brilliant stuff as usual. Found one of your sketches the other day buried in my stuff. A guy comes out of the shower to find someone waiting in his living room. Still laughing now thinking about it.
How long was the set and what was edited out?
The set was about twenty minutes long and I edited out a variety of jokes, some that I didn't want to give away on the internet, some that didn't get a great reaction and some that were reliant on call backs that I didn't put in as I didn't want to make very long videos.
Do have one more clip I will put up tomorrow.
Thanks for feedback - I forgot about that sketch Simon, I should really film it!
Do you always do a 20 minute set - or was this first time?
It was a confident performance but I think sometimes you took too long getting to the punchline and the gag wasn't strong enough to take that. For instance the first Centre Parcs joke was good, but the set up was too long. It would have more impact if it was tightened up. And I didn't think the Centre Parcs/Godfather call-back was strong enough to end on. Maybe swap them around?
I liked the wagon wheel joke - a good silly throw-away line. But maybe you could do a bit of a Harry Hill and keep it going with similar lines.
Does some of the stuff you did at this gig usually get a better reaction or was this the first time you were trying this set out?
