Tickling the English

Informationen zum Autor Dara O Briain Klappentext Dara O Briain is the biggest Irish comic to have hit the UK in recent years. Already a huge star in Ireland, O Briain has now moved from being a sold-out festival favourite in Edinburgh to selling out theatres across the country and enjoying mainstream television success with his topical BBC comedy show, Mock The Week . He has been living in England for the past seven years. Zusammenfassung Why do the English pretend to be unhappy all the time? Why can't they accept they rank about 5th, in everything? And what's with all the fudge? This book explores themes such as nostalgia, identity, eccentricity, gin drinking and occasional violence. It is an eye-opening journey through the Sceptred Isle.
