Pasquale stand-up akin to classic Cooper

It must be the time of year, as comedies are coming thick and fast on the shelf. Joe Pasquale — Does He Really Talk Like That (2 Entertain, €19.95) is your chance to see the comedian in a live performance.

Pasquale’s humour has been compared to Tommy Cooper, and that’s a big compliment considering Cooper was one of my favourite comics. Ideal for the Christmas stocking and packed with extras.
