It was then I added the ‘h’ to boy." Stage name taken by a dancing dog Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Busta Nut Posted April 18, 2019 Share Posted April 18, 2019 I have watched that Danny Bhoy before and he wasn't good. But to be Scottish and that stupid to alienate yourself to abouthalf the country with a daft name is moronic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

19QOS19 Posted April 18, 2019 Share Posted April 18, 2019 FTFYThis. If it means a few hundred knuckledraggers won't go to his show because of the spelling then he's probably made a shrewd move tbh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For what it's worth he's as funny as toothache regardless of the origin of his stage name. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're clearly made for each other. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hampden Diehard Posted April 18, 2019 Share Posted April 18, 2019 I've seen a few clips from that Danny Bhoy and it's pretty uncomfortable viewing. It's 'Scottish humour' for people who aren't Scottish.The guy's dreadful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clockwork Posted April 19, 2019 Share Posted April 19, 2019 Watching a few episodes of MTW on Dave, Angela Barnes is SO unfunny. Do people actually pay to go see her shows? Sure she’s a nice lass but as a stand up comic, just awful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arch Stanton Posted April 19, 2019 Share Posted April 19, 2019 19 hours ago, MixuFixit said: I think they're both masterful comedians. That being said Stewart Lee definitely recycled material at his last fringe show, so a break was probably in order. His last Fringe show was a WIP for Content Provider which itself was a condensed version of a WIP for a series of Comedy Vehicle. Anyway, tickets are only £15, bargain.

Busta Nut Posted April 19, 2019 Share Posted April 19, 2019 I had to google her. I recognised her face but there seemed to be drastic weight changes in the pics. Does she do "I used to be fat" type comedy? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Melanius Mullarkey Posted April 19, 2019 Share Posted April 19, 2019 Stewart Lee did most of the second half of his Dundee show last year with his breeks round his ankles. Good enough for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think so, reminds of that Geordie woman with the glasses, name escapes me but her entire 'act' consists of....in an annoyingly high pitched voice and Noocassul accent 'Ooh me boyfriend left me, ooh I like cake, ooh im single, ooh think im gonna have a bit of cake...ooh" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
