A Bit After Ten - Series One, Episode 11
Television (Full Length) – 1993
It's the first semi-final for this stand-up comedy talent quest presented by Jeremy and Nigel Corbett (who assert their edgy, early 90s credentials with a running gag about Nirvana). Judges Ian Harcourt, Theresa Healey and Strawpeople's Mark Tierney preside over a line-up comprising a very composed Michèle A'Court, mildcore rappers Hip Hips, The Back Garden, Jo Randerson (in angry-ish feminist mode), a particularly hirsute Jon Bridges and eventual winner Late Night Mike (with Harcourt generating as many laughs as the contestants).
Here are the two guys who are to comedy what Nana Mouskouri is to grunge.– Jeremy and Nigel Corbett’s introduction
