Okay, this is where we can all discuss the Comedy Festival and the Gala. Anyone here got the "Highlights" DVD? Is it any good?

I remember a line from the 2007 Gala, but not who said it. It's something like:

"Do I not sound like a pussycat purring?"
"No, dear, you sound like a cat drowning in porridge."

MAS

Can anyone name the comedian?

*ante.

Sorry, sorry! Must perfect grammar! See, "upping the ante" comes from poker, where an amount is put in the pot first before any cards are dealt. It's like a blind, but everyone pays it. The ante. =)

Okay, I also have the Best Of DVD, and when my friends' birthdays come around I copy all their fave comedians from it onto a DVD for them. =D
The last one wasn't that great I don't think... Hopefully the Galas will be better in future years. =) I still like it though, especially with Timmy. =D

I'm glad you put that bit in brackets in, or I would still be trying to figure out what you were talking about. Very Happy

It's all good now Smile

Yes, I've noticed how people tend to edit their posts after other people point out errors... It confuses me no end.

Yeah, the Gala DVD's are pretty awesome! There are some classic performances on there, some not great ones too. but overall I think it was a worthwhile purchase, despite already having TV rips of the full shows from like the last 6 years.

Somebody's probably already said this, but is there much of Tim on the DVD?
