Patrick Monahan at the Leicester Comedy Festival preview show

Note: This review is from 2010

Review by Steve Bennett

Irish-Iranian Patrick Monahan is all generous bonhomie, making the audience feel warm and toasty as he liberally spreads the goodwill like a professional meeter and greeter. But everything he said is so forgettable, I had to refer to the footage to remind myself of his material just a few hours after the show.

There’s a bit of bar-room banter about ‘who would you rather sleep with…’, an unlikely premise that Mujahideen is a Scandinavian brand of food processor and some lightweight comments about women’s magazines such as Chat.

A couple of good gags lie within, but it’s mainly banter – unmemorable, but sure to cheer you up.
