Proto AmnestyShambles

The Amnesty International benefit shows began here - later transmogrifying into the Secret Policeman's Ball. It's essentially a bundle of well-worn Beyond the Fringe skits, Python bits and fragments of stand-up as well as the Goodies doing their single. As a film it's more of a lean piece documentary than anything, capturing moments across the three nights and some behind the scenes capering. It's a fascinating bit of UK comedy history and lovely to watch a wild smorgasbord of luminaries in their element but it has a deeply "random collage" vibe that robs it of some energy and tonally it feels very patchy.
