Cliffs PavilionThe Early Edition - Palace Theatre

Dear MRS Searle​

THE EARLY EDITION
PALACE THEATRE
SATURDAY 21ST MARCH AT 12 NOON

If you are of the opinion that every page of your morning paper is filled with doom, destruction and downfall, well... we understand. The daily press are often telling us how everything is going wrong and there is nothing we can do about it. It must be true. The papers are always right. Well, now comes a show that questions all those assumptions, a show that ridicules the naysayers, unravels the spin and pooh-poohs the pomposity of headline print.
The Early Edition is a legendary live comedy show hosted by Marcus Brigstocke & Andre Vincent.

Together they have been the backbone of topical TV and Radio shows in Britain for the last 10 years…
The Early Edition was created as a spin-off from the highly acclaimed BBC 4 show The Late Edition. After complete sell-outs at the Edinburgh Festival in 2006 & 2007, Hay-on-Wye Literary Festival in 2008 and then storming the tents at Latitude and Bestival Festivals in 2008. The show now goes on the road to the regions before heading for a run on London's South Bank.
During each show, two well known/topical guests will help the hosts pull apart the views and opinions found in the recent and regional newspapers.​

Special guests at Palace Theatre will be​

​

Local lad... Phill Jupitus (Never Mind The Buzzcocks, QI ) ​

and Carrie Quinlan (News Quiz & The Now Show).​

Tickets: £12.50 including coffee and cake

Students: £10.50 including coffee and cake

I sincerely hope not he is as funny as piles. If anyone has told this pillock he's funny they've done him a grave disservice.

 

[OldBlueLady]

What Jupitus or Brigstocke? Tbh, I quite like them both.

 

[MK Shrimper]

Jupitus is a dirty spammer. :madman:

 

[OldBlueLady]

But he's down here quite often? And I do, honestly quite like him.

 

[MK Shrimper]

Comedy wise, absolutely! He was great on BBC6 when it first started before it all went BBC XFM.

 

[Shrimper]

Phil Jupitus shops in Waitrose and my brother often saw him, keeps himself to himself, nice chap. Don't like Bridstock and don't even know who that other guy is.

 

[manor15]

I'm going to that! My brother likes the Bridgestock bloke. My friend lives next door to Phil Jupitus in Leigh.

 

[OldBlueLady]

So, we just need lots of "Sarfend"s then, always beat the West Hamlot into submission.

 

[RobM]

"He was great on BBC6".

Not exactly mainstream then.


Gordon Connelly was great for 45 minutes against Brighton.

 

[Thorpe Groyney]

When I was at Insure & Go, one of the women in my department that had to go on the phones (I never went on the phones because I'm great) flogged a travel policy to Marcus Brigstocke. She said he was a really nice bloke after engaging in banter with him.

On that basis alone you should go.

 

[Interpol Shrimper]

My friend lives next door to Phil Jupitus in Leigh.

Marine Close?

 

[manor15]

Marine Close?

Dunno mate, sorry

 

[Interpol Shrimper]

Dunno mate, sorry

What, you mean you don't know where your mate lives???

 

[manor15]

What, you mean you don't know where your mate lives???

I think they live in Leigh but don't know the road, sorry

 

[Napster]

Jupitus is OK - Brigstocke's excellent on The Now Show and a friend of Matt the Shrimp.

 

[blues_r_best]

We Are History is Brigstocke's best work

 

[Pubey]

I once saw Phil Jupitus walking down the street with his family... me and my mate shouted "alright Phil!" too him from across the road, and he gave a little nod. We then wondered why they were all wearing black, why his wife was looking tearful, and why there were big black limos outside the church that they were walking into with a handful of other grieving friends and family... felt a little bit guilty after that!

 

[manor15]

Phil Jupitus was great, don't think he likes Canvey much though! Sorry Canvey Shrimper! Bridgestock was quite good, he's very good at spontaneously making something funny up unlike some comedians

 

[Matt the Shrimp]

Of course I'm biased (Marcus is married to one of my best mates from school), but I think he's a very funny bloke - someone to go and see whenever you get the chance. He & Andre Vincent work very well together - I saw the latter do a p*ss-take of Steven Berkoff at the Edinburgh Fringe which remains, visually, one of the funniest things I've ever seen.

:)

Jupitus has put money in the Blues' coffers by attending RH and sitting in the South Stand, and is thus more than alright with me.
