Win a Secret Policeman's Ball DVD
The rebirth of Amnesty International's legendary Secret Policeman’s Ball at the Royal Albert Hall on 14th October - after a 15 year hiatus - was a resounding success. Bigger, better and ballsier than ever before, 'The Ball In The Hall' is a non-stop, rapid-fire, relentless smorgasbord of comedy and music.
5,000 people turned up to create a fantastic atmosphere and an additional 4000 watched in cinemas around the UK as some of the best contemporary comic and music talent from both sides of the Atlantic delivered one show-stopping performance after another. Featuring never-before-seen collaborations, brand new sketches, explosive stand-up, off-stage performances and surprise ingredients, there has been nothing like it in the comedy world for years.
An edited version of the show has been broadcast by Channel 4 and now a much longer version plus a wealth of Extras will be released on DVD by Warner Vision International on 4th December. This will instantly become the most essential DVD purchase or gift for fans of stand-up and sketch comedy this Christmas - the only new grouping of greats on one DVD in recent memory.
The DVD version of the great gig boasts extended footage of all the performances featured in the TV broadcast and several acts from the show which will be seen for the first time - including stand-up from Dylan Moran, Omid Djalli's hilarious 'Diary Of A Dictator' sketch and an on-stage 'operation' performed by the cast of Green Wing.
The extended acts will give viewers the chance to be even more impressed by Irish newcomer Andrew Maxwell, more startled by American comedienne Sarah Silverman and more regaled by Russell Brand. Plus more Eddie Izzard, more Al Murray, more Mighty Boosh - in short, much more!
At 120 minutes, the DVD version of the show is at least 30 minutes longer than that broadcast - plus over an hour of Extras.
