The Telegraph, 12th August 2011My Edinburgh: Dave Gorman, comedian
Something odd happens to performers during the Fringe. They lose any sense of perspective. For three weeks they become even more self-obsessed than normal.

Comedian Dave Gorman is returning to the style of the first stand-up shows he performed in Edinburgh in the mid-1990s, but this time he's just going to be himself, he tells Susan Mansfield.

Gary Flockhart, The Scotsman, 4th August 2011Interview - Dave Gorman's Power Point Presentation
Latest show based on finding and playing obscure and unique games.
Brian Donaldson, The List, 6th July 2011Perhaps the most interesting thing about this show is that the unbroadcast pilot has been made available online.
The Matt Lucas Awards is a TV version of the BBC Radio 2 show And the Winner Is... in which the Little Britain star presents the Lucas Awards to unusual categories, the nominations being decided by three celebrity guests. The BBC decided that the pilot was so good that they've commissioned a full series and have released the pilot on their comedy website.
The first episode featured Dave Gorman, Ruby Wax and Jack Whitehall as guests suggesting nominations for the Lucas Awards for "Most Incomprehensible British Accent", "The Guest with The Most Useless Talent" and "Worst Song by an Otherwise Reputable Artist". Out of the guests, for me it was Wax who was funniest, especially with her ability to memories 400 different camp songs, and her attempt to call Blue's Anthony Costa on Whitehall's mobile phone.
I also enjoyed what Lucas and his house band, David Arnold and The Available Session Musicians, referred to as the "excruciating theme tune", which for me wasn't excruciating at all, but rather jolly.
Overall, it's clear to see why the BBC felt comfortable putting this pilot out - whether or not they will put the pilot on the TV before the series goes out is another matter.

The stand-up show I filmed in Birmingham in February goes out this week. It was a really fun live show and I think they've done a grand job in the edit. I hope you can watch it...
