BRILLIANT!!! Please bring this comedy to the States!! I grew up with BBC when it was excellent. Remember the dog trainer who said to her dogs - "Let's go for WALKIES" I adore English comedy, much deeper and makes you think! I'm so thankful there are so many channels on youtube to enjoy!
Yes!!! Please do!!
Would love to see this, but can't make it.
Would love to see this in the states or there being a streaming option.
We were lucky enough to catch this show in Birmingham recently, split our sides laughing! 😂. Much ruder onstage than TV, too 😊
Yeah I made a trip alone from East Sussex to Birmingham to watch it, and now I want to see it in London too. They should make a feature length Spitting Image episode based on Idiots Assemble too.
Love Al. He was never confused
They should do H&M singing the song "Money makes the world go round" from Cabaret. As its so them.
I saw Idiots Assemble back in February and it was the funniest thing I've ever seen in a theatre. And it was performed incredibly, there was so much talent in the room
I have worked with 'Sesame Street' and they worked out that seeing the actors was not a problem many years ago.
Tom Cruise is a life-size puppet! 😂
As a lrish man he is the best comic in the UK brilliant
Never seen Al with hair! XD
So much better than the Muppets. Standing ovation from the states!
looks good, Al Murray is top bloke
Jim Henson would approve of this musical
Would it be awesome if they had the puppets on the show
Edwina Currie was a dreadful politician.
