Time Out Review
Jigging energetically around the stage, firing off volleys of falsetto observations and faux-aristocratic impressions, he's like an energetic Frankie Howerd in a Worzel Gummidge wig, sending up video footage of acne-scarred teens playing retro computer game 'Track & Field', while lamenting the use of fear as an educational tool for children.
Alexi Duggins, Time Out, 17th October 2007Radio Head: Jeremy Hardy Speaks to the Nation
Rowland Rivron, Sandi Toksvig, Mark Steel, Mark Thomas, Jo Brand, Graham Fellowes, Russell Brand . . . the list of modern comedians that divides the nation is a surprisingly lengthy one. And it will be only part of the listening public that will be rearranging its life to be in front of the wireless when the latest series of the sociopolitical lecture Jeremy Hardy Speaks to the Nation kicks off next Tuesday (Radio 4, 6.30pm).
