The Fast Show Live DVD


Release Date: 18th November 2002


大象传媒 Worldwide? Releasing The Fast Show Live on DVD? This November? From the record-breaking 1998 sell-out live show? With over 80 minutes of fast and furious fun written by and starring PAUL WHITEHOUSE and CHARLIE HIGSON? More characters, costume changes and catchphrases than ever before? Never seen on TV and the first ever live DVD of The Fast Show? Complimenting the range of Fast Show videos, DVD's, audio cassettes and CDs already available in the range? Are they quite mad? Oh well...


Filmed in February 1998 during the show's month-long run at the Labatt's Apollo Hammersmith, The Fast Show Live used 52 wigs, 84 costumes, 48 people to physically make the show happen and 47 different scenes. 115,000 people came to see the show, and 30,000 bottles of lager, 2,000 bottles of water, 14 bottles of Vitamin B12 mix, 196 Nurofen Plus and 4 packs of Diocalm were consumed backstage throughout the run. The set needed 7 articulated trucks to transport it, and there were 3 backstage romances!


Catchphrases featured include "Oh bugger", "Anyone fancy a pint?", "You ain't seen me, right", "Someone's sitting there mate", "Suit you sir", "I don't want to go to the dark place", "Where's me washboard", "This month I have been mostly eating...", "I'm a little bit wayy", "Which was nice", "No offence", "Does my bum look big in this", "I'll get me coat", and "I was very very drunk".
