Description

Horribly awkward comedy has never been so popular. The trend is for discomfort: we love to squirm at Ricky Gervais' creations, we applaud as Sacha Baron Cohen humiliates his victims, we relish the feelings of disgust that characters from Little Britain give rise to. This book will look at leading pioneers of the obscene, the cringe worthy and the extreme. Including TV successes such as Catherine Tate, Peep Show, Alan Partridge, Peter Kay, The Mighty Boosh, Brass Eye, League of Gentlemen as well stand-up routines from the likes of Russell Brand, Simon Amstell and Eddie Izzard. Leading us chapter-by-chapter though the new comedy scene, Ed Page also looks at the film exploits of comedians like Simon Pegg, Bill Bailey and many more.

Author Biography:

Edwin Page has a first class degree in film and literary studies and has had several stories, poems and articles published in a variety of magazines. He is the author of Quintessential Tarantino and Gothic Fantasy: The Films of Tim Burton also published by Marion Boyars Publishers.
