Andy Vaughan – Original Review
Note: This review is from 2007
Review by Steve Bennett
Glaswegian newcomer Andy Vaughan can command a room with his presence, hitting the ground running with a sharp tongue-in-cheek joke about thieving scallies.But he follows it up some mundane gags on the level of imagining Osama Bin Laden being good at hide-and-seek that inevitably fall flat.
When he turns into sicker territory, the atmosphere takes a distinctive turn for the worst. Too harsh an attitude, and too many humourless jokes about rape in particular, can turn an audience against him.
