No theme, no storyline, no happy ending. Just funny Jo tells stories drwan from life and where her imagination takes the things around her. Men in the pub, ads aimed a women of a certain age and German porn films all get the Caulfield treatment. And her most reliable source of material, the neverending disappointment that is her comedy husband. Acerbic, sharp, smart, with unexpected punchlines. Or even exected one. The result is still laughter, because her delivery is spot on.
Having seen her a few times before, there was some familiar material, which was a little disappointing. But that didn’t stop me laughing, all over again. If you are looking for a show that changes your life or tugs your emotions then this isn’t it. But if you simply want to laugh, and laugh, for an hour then Jo Caulfield always delivers.
