I couldn't disagree more with your reviewer - Mounfield's show was the most underrated hour of comedy I saw on the Fringe this year. Rarely have I laughed so much while sober. The 'lazy Tory' caricature was a gem, while Mounfield's political material shows he could, if he so chose, go on to become Britain's answer to Bill Hicks. His predilection for getting his kit off is to be regretted, but his showbiz anecdotes (particularly a rather scurrilous one about a former Man from U.N.C.L.E) are a joy to behold. I expect to see a lot more of this guy - four and a half stars!
