Welcome To The Places Of My Life
Reviewing a new Alan Partridge comedy is like supporting England in a penalty shoot out; there is no winning. I could watch this hour, tell you it is brilliant, and get “you would say that” taunts. Equally, it could be

It is not very often that we are afforded the opportunity to review an album on The Comedy Journal. It wouldn’t take much market research for a music exec to decide against any budding musical comedy acts standing hopefully before
