Club Z returns again for more brainwashing of the highest order. Simon Munnery (alias Alan Parker) is The League Against Tedium, a super-being of 1984 proportions who is better than us.
He uses a large screen with hidden messages and short sketches to command his all-seeing, all-knowing, all- powerful, all-baloney facade over us. A range of stars – including Kevin Eldon, Jason Freeman and Stewart Lee – have their potential talent colossally wasted in sketches that were probably thought of as a passing indulgence.
But Munnery’s super-geek host with a trendy mike-staff is not bad. I confess the majority of my nine laughs were as a result of his beady- eyed Kenneth Williams-on-something-strong expressions.
There were multiple cock-ups, pyrotechnics, music and props.
But the bottom line was the huge audience which was laughing at largely poor material, delivered by decent solo stand-ups.
