Lenny Live and Unleashed

Fri, 22 Aug 2025 04:00:00 +0000

It is very rare for a British comedian to be given a concert film all to themself but in 1989 Lenny Henry was given that honour. We start off with him been driven to the concert by Robbie Coltrane as the sort of taxi driver you don’t want to get a lift from. Once inside he meets three of his comic heroes – Steve Martin, Richard Pryor and Eddie Murphy (all played by Lenny) and then it’s on with the stage show. He mixes stand up with appearances from some of his best known characters and there are a few amusing songs along the way.

The Secret Policeman’s Other Ball

Fri, 22 Aug 2025 04:00:00 +0000

Following the success of the 1979 show and the financial benefits accruing to Amnesty from the spin-off movie, TV special and record albums Cleese, Lewis and Walker planned the next show to be a more spectacular event. Cleese focused on broadening the comedic talent to be presented at the show. In addition to the Amnesty show stalwarts drawn from the Oxbridge/Monty Python/Beyond The Fringe orbit, he invited newcomers such as Rowan Atkinsons colleagues from the BBC TV show Not the Nine O’Clock News including Pamela Stephenson and Griff Rhys Jones; comedian Victoria Wood and regional comic Jasper Carrott. Lewis secured a return appearance by Billy Connolly and a debut appearance by “alternative” comedian Alexei Sayle who Lewis had recently discovered and was managing. Building on the success of Pete Townshend’s 1979 appearance Lewis recruited other rock musicians to perform at the 1981 show including Sting, Phil Collins, Eric Clapton, Jeff Beck, Donovan and Bob Geldof.
