Barely Legal Corn – Free (Big Spoon Little Spoon / Laughing Horse Free Festival)
By Jessica Ballance | Published on Wednesday 31 August 2011
If you’re keen on obvious humour and enjoy the dull grate of a rather worn cliché against your funny bone, then you might not utterly hate these three rather dashing comics. Heaving themselves unceremoniously onto the stage, their whole hour of material circled, with worrying frequency, around ‘babestation’, their lack of a sex life, and how badly their jokes were going. Welshman Robin Haywood’s comedy mostly concerned sheep and this farmer who had sex with his pigs, which hardly made for riveting, or even bearable material. And although James Farmer was a small road-bump of excitement, the deliveries were universally lethargic in a largely flailing hour of comedic flat-lining.
Laughing Horse at The Three Sisters, 12 – 18 Aug, 12.30pm (1.30pm), free, fpp43.
