Inspired by the amazing audience reaction to his deconstruction of song lyrics in his “Best Medicine Tour” combined with his fascination with the vagaries of the English Language , Dave’s hilarious new show examines many more situations in life where words really don’t come easy . These include tongue-tied parents explaining the facts of life , ridiculous newspaper stories , poems, pathetic adolescent chat-up lines , hospital speak , learning a foreign language and an extended selection of song lyrics that range from the lazy through surreal to the ridiculous. Throw in a “Champion the Wonder Horse” sing-a-long , a look at Ancient Abyssinian Contraception, Rubbish School Trips , Epidural Anaesthesia and The Last Supper and you have all the ingredients for a rich and spicy comedy casserole - a sort of Lexicon-Carne ! Sorry.
