Andy Sir – Original Review

Note: This review is from 2008

Review by Steve Bennett

Andy Sir is, at least aurally, the splitting image of Arnold Brown. It’s not just the laconic, educated Glasgow accent, but the exact same sense of slow comic timing.

His sense of humour is uncannily similar, too, with dry, wry observation-based jokes teased out into the audience. ‘I am, in fact, terribly hip,’ he drools – with all the self-deprecation this obvious young fogey can muster.

But the lines are smart, and the presentation appealing, despite being derivative. It’s not the sort of act who’ll have you in raptures, so low is the energy, but you will be reliably amused for the duration of the set.
