Review: Sunday Night Comedy at Weymouth Pavilion

Despite Terry Alderton's best attempts to make light of the heckler's disappointment in his act, fun soon turned to fisticuffs as the young lad threw a cup of beer over the comedian.

Radio Times review

"I don't think people are gonna get what's going on here", admits Essex boy Terry Alderton in the first episode of his... er... unusual comedy series. Even those familiar with the experiments in this late-night slot may be taken aback.

The show is a soundscape of voices (all provided by Alderton), effects and music with little or no concession to comic custom. This is a real surprise given Alderton's more conventional stand-up career. "Episode two's gotta be better than episode one", he appeases us.

Let's see. At the moment I'm recovering from the shock of the new.

Preview: Terry Alderton's All Crazy Now

Comedies on Radio 4, however good, can sometimes fall into the trap of sounding the same. No such chance here. This show is so packed full of disjoined sentences, cheap and silly songs, odd impressions, tape loops, sound effects and electronic beats, that it feels like a pirate takeover.

Last weekend Terry Alderton was booed off stage in front of 26,000 people, including members of the Royal Family, at the closing ceremony of Invictus Games for injured armed service people. Terry concedes he badly misjudged the mood of the occasion and says he feels "absolutely horrendous".

The Establishment Club, comedy review

When this reprise of Peter Cook's 1960s satirical club debuted in 2012 it was an underwhelming affair. George Galloway and comedian Terry Alderton topped and tailed the bill that night. They do so again today, but luckily the parallels end there.
