The Jest and Guests

A sketch show consisting of five comedians. Most memorable moment was a particularly convincing impersonation of Maggie Smith coming from a bearded and slightly sweaty member of the cast (Luke Theobald). Also burned onto my retinas is the image of one member of the five piece (Tristan Rogers) picking a rather bemused audience member and performing an intentionally stunted and awkward strip tease. I laughed many, many times; a few times just at the facial expressions one Bryony Twydle made. These guys have great timing, and a talent for articulating absurd trends in what we see on television. Highly recommended.
