  • I tried to find this online, but it isn’t available to watch anywhere, no matter how much money you’re willing to pay, and who has a DVD player these days.
    Obviously I don’t make any money from this, I just want to watch it on a digital device!

      I appreciate your feelings but if you think about it, this was an era where the internet was wildly unregulated, the peak of the dark web and things like the Silk Road.
      i would say that this was a time where social media wasn’t as prevalent which made it a nicer place.

    I was in the audience for this filming, he got 10 minutes into it and the stage manager came out to say there'd been a sound recording issue, so he had to start it again and because it was being filmed he asked us to laugh even though we knew the jokes. Only just watching this, it's edited very well!

    I just tried typing Francophile Namesakes. Three interesting things:
    1. Just as I finished typing ‘Francophile’ but before I started typing ‘namesakes’, Google put up a list of suggestion to type. Third on the list was ‘Francophile namesakes’.
    2. Google came up with 35900 suggested sites for ‘Francophile namesakes’ and all of them relate to Dave Gorman. So, presumably thanks to this show, ‘Francophile namesakes’ is no longer a Googlewhack!
    3. There are now 3170 suggestions for Dork Turnspit, and there’s even a band called Dork Turnspit. Dave Gorman has changed the landscape of Google for all time!
