    Now that would be something to see and experience and Grieg happens to be one of my favourite composers

    He doesn't hate them that much, he jokes about them but he's also performed at the Royal Variety Show and things like that.

    As a self-proclaimed expert on cockney musicology, I would have expected him to touch upon the 'Boiled Beef and Carrots' intro, that can also be used as an outro. It goes something like: 'Tiddle iddle 'aara, Tiddle iddle 'aara. Howz ya farva? Aw right!!'

    Happens to be one of my fav eps of Black Books. In all his stand up shows, Bailey seems to play every instrument flawlessly. It's a true joy to watch. His humor is dry and subtle. His cockney rendition of the Wilhelm Tell Ouverture is quite possibly the best cover ever made. I will never tire of watching it.
