Paul Merton Live at the PalladiumBBC
27 September 1994
Variety
DVD
C+
This almost hour and a half is uneven, although I suppose if you haven't heard Paul's stand-up, or watched Paul Merton, The Series, some of it will feel fresher to you, and a B- or B might be fairer. The best bit is the lengthy three-man panto of Aladdin, with Paul apparently improvising jokes that not only play on the situation (including Vranch in a bikini!) but call back to earlier bits in the show. John L. Spencer and Andy Wilson are both listed as director, but neither of them worked on any other of my shows, so I'm not tagging them.
