The Frog and Bucket in Manchester is already sold out, so do book ahead for the other gigs. There are only a few London dates this time round - don't leave it til the last minute.
DVD RELEASES
There are a couple of big releases coming up from
http://www.gofasterstripe.com
On October 31st Christ on a Bike will go on sale. It's already a double disc with over five hours of extras, but if you buy it from go faster stripe you will get a third disc packed with even more extra stuff (including the Richard Herring in Fiji documentary from 1999). It's the perfect Christmas gift - much better than some myrrh anyway.
Also coming out (exclusively on go faster stripe) in early November is the DVD of the first series of Fist of Fun. We've bought this from the BBC at not inconsiderable expense and we've put together a lovely 4 disc set with all kinds of cool extras including commentaries, interviews, scripts, and some unseen material. Series 2 will be out next year and if these both sell OK and we don't lose our shirts then we'll look into releasing TMWRNJ too.
You should be able to pre order these DVDs from the middle of next week.
HALF MARATHON
I am running the Royal Parks Half Marathon for SCOPE on October 9th. Be lovely if you wanted to sponsor me (even if it's just a pound) -
