For our documentary we thought it would be interesting to interview a proffessional comedian. We telephoned agencies of different comedians and were given email addresses to contact personal publicists and agents etc. We emailed agencies for Simon Pegg, Frankie Boyle, Russell Brand and Al Murray. These were all unsuccessful.

Simon Pegg:


Russell Brand:


Frankie Boyle:



Al Murray:


We also telephoned local comedy clubs and looked for events that were occuring in liverpool and the wirral. We arranged an interview with a member of staff in the laughterhouse which is a comedy club in the slaughterhouse pub in liverpool but they let us down on the day. We telephoned the comedy trust whch is a charity based in the Royal Court theatre in liverpool. Sam who works for the comedy trust agreed to do an interview with us and then also invited us to an under 18s comedy night with a professional headline comedian.
