Daves comedy steamroller will have you laughing so much you will cry. I would say that I fell it is more targeted at the over 30's.Even though it's a cert.15. If I haven't convinced you yet there is a special feature which is well worth the money alone.
Thisis basically Jerry St Clair from Phoenix Nights in all but name. It a breathtaking 40 minutes interview talking about his upbringing, Showbiz and hitting the big time. The pace of the gags is one after the other and you will be glued to your seat incase you miss a joke or sideways look..For my dad it was just as funny as the main gig.

Hope it has opened your mind to Dave Spikey it has for me. I had never heard of him but really enjoyed this DVD.
...legend that is Peter Kay, Dave Spikey is a great upholder of cheeky northern humour and a sure-fire hit.
Dave's first stand-up outing since rising in popularity as Jerry in C4's Phoenix Nights is a successful one. The observational humour we can all relate to abounds, made funnier with Dave's own collection of bizarre obituaries, and his own tales of 'Dobbers' and duck cabaret (yes, that's what I thought).
The pace is fast, the jokes a blend of ... ...it was filmed at. Lights down and volume up and you have the intimate feel of a comedy club, with the added bonus of an award-winning comedian providing the entertainment.
Dave's laid back style makes sure that a lot of the humour creeps up on you and bites you on the preverbial. Couple that with his sharp characterisations and you have comedy experience not to be missed... unless of course you are a duck, or write obituaries.
My 'laughometer' ...

Advantages: side splitting original comedy Disadvantages: none
An excellent comic and his first DVD, Most people will recognise him from Phoenix Nights (Jerry St.Clair) or '8 Out of 10 Cats' on Channel 4.
The man is a genius! Personally I find him funnier than Peter Kay (this is the man who found him).
He too has excellent observational skills at the world around us. Since watching this DVD I find myself reading certain parts of the news paper and giggling non-stop to myself (BUY IT TO UNDERSTAND!)
Only downside ...
