An Audience With Ken Dodd

Critically acclaimed as a comedy masterpiece, An Audience With Ken Dodd was first shown by LWT and immediately confirmed Ken's status as Britain's funniest comedian.

It produced a 5-minute standing ovation from its star-studded audience and has since become one of the highest-rating light entertainment shows of all time. Such was the demand when it was first screened that it was repeated six months later, and the 75 minute special has subsequently been shown yet again.

An Audience With Ken Dodd became his first ever video. He received a double-platinum award from the Video Retailers Association for sales in excess of £2 million. Now available on DVD, with the bonus of an extra 40 minutes of material never previously seen in the original TV show, Ken's highly acclaimed feast of fun for all the family, features a host of celebrity guests, including James Fox, Frank Carson, Paul Daniels, Warren Mitchell, Kevin Whately, Hannah Gordon, Rosemary Leach, Gordon Kaye, stars from 'Coronation Street' and many others.

An Audience with Ken Dodd is a fun-filled show which was so well received when first transmitted that it has been repeated several times on TV and been widely received in the media as the nation's tattifelarious and must-see tickle-tonic. Ken's comedy tour-de-force is complemented by his favourite songs, spoof opera and a wonderfully inspired guest appearance by his ventriloquial pal Dicky Mint. And of course, he also answers questions from his celebrity guests.

An Audience With Ken Dodd is a classic Ken Dodd comedy extravaganza from Britain's best-loved laughter-maker, and this DVD is a fantastic treat for all the family - young and old - and for all lovers of classic comedy.
