Guardian Unlimited on Bill Bailey's new show:
"Though at times he seemed unusually low-energy, Bailey runs off after more trains of thought than most comics manage in an entire career. Talking of the warnings on packets of painkillers, he says: 'It's aimed at a very specific demographic - "Do not operate machinery". I want a warning that's more middle class. One that would say, "Do not attempt the novels of Thomas Pynchon."' With such smart stuff, he could afford to lose the improvised threads about invisible mice, which do come across as throat-clearing."
