More than 30 years ago, Ben Elton exploded into the national consciousness hosting Channel 4's ground-breaking Saturday Live. Now, after a 15+ year absence, Elton returns to the medium he did so much to define.

Recorded in 2022 at Southend's Palace Theatre, the multi-award-winning comedy writer and undisputed Godfather of modern stand-up delivers over two hours of blisteringly incisive comedy, in which the motor-mouth of the master tries to make sense of a world which appears to have gone stark raving mad.
