Chris Ramsey: Live From London: Trailer, certificate and where to watch
Acclaimed stand-up comedian takes to the capital
Year: 2024
Certificate: 15
Chris Ramsey hits the stage running and doesn't let up in this punchy stand-up set, which was filmed at London's Royal Court Theatre. One of the former Strictly contender's topics is Alexa, who he believes has been behaving passive aggressively towards him, and could be poised to reveal embarrassing truths about his life when friends come to visit.
Ramsey delivers these jokes like he moves - with purpose, confidence and tension, not to mention plenty of volume. He speaks so loudly it's sometimes surprising when he hits close to the bone with truths about life, including how grandparents completely forget the basics of parenting when they start looking after the next generation down, feeding them all manner of rubbish without a thought to the consequences.
There's a self-deprecation here that takes him to places you might not expect during the set - a set that also dwells on his struggles on Strictly which, it's important to remember, he actually did pretty well on, finishing fourth in 2019. (46 minutes)
