Dave McCue – Original Review

Note: This review is from 2007

Review by Steve Bennett

As a newcomer Dave McCue has potential but not the experience to stand out.

He has a new twist on some old-fashioned jokes, and viciously scores some amusing points at the expense of the North Yorkshire town of Filey, which he portrays as being filled with hideous grotesques.

However, he runs out of steam even over ten minutes, and resorts to predictable material about easyJet and fat Americans, suggesting he needs to expand his horizons further – and not repeat lines he may have heard elsewhere. It’s an act that certainly needs more work, although the delivery is engaging.
