Comedy review: Daniel Sloss & Kai Humphries

It was hardly a glamorous setting for a jump-start - a rainy, windy car park just off the North Circular. But at the weekend, in Brent Cross Stadium Car Park, London, the UK's live comedy scene revved back to life - and with the amount of cheerful honking involved, we feel sorry for the neighbours. Honking? Yep - this is The Drive-In Club, where the performers on stage aren't faced with a sea of faces, but rows of bumpers and headlights.
