PAUL MERTON THE SERIES 1 & 2
THE FUNNIEST COMEDY SHOW I’VE SEEN IN DECADES - Victor Lewis-Smith, Evening Standard
Consistently ranked as one of Britain’s funniest comedians by critics, viewers and some of his neighbours, here’s Paul in his very own TV show from the ‘90s – Paul Merton: The Series.
The star of Whose Line Is It Anyway? and Have I Got News For You? now brings you two series full of his trademark deadpan, surreal comedy.
In Series 1, he poses such philosophical questions as What do people get up to in a Turkish bath? How can a visit to the dentist become a hazard to aircraft? What do cats dream about?
Series 2 sees him go from 19th century Transylvania to 20th century Stansted Airport taking in the golden years of Hollywood along the way. And all this before he’s cast adrift on the high seas with only Delia Smith for company!
So sit back, expect the unexpected and enjoy being taken to places you never knew existed.
