Harry Hill: Pedigree Fun! – Live Review – York Grand Opera House

By Roger Crow, October 2022

Oh my aching sides. I’m well aware that for the past hour or more I’ve been laughing. Belly laughs, chuckles, rib-ticklers. You name it, Harry Hill has flipped a switch at the Grand Opera House, and York’s great and good have jumped on his comedy train and happily gone along for the ride.

Converting that gloriously insane merriment into words is a little like trying to describe a dream. It made perfect sense at the time, but the morning after? Not so much.

So a little context. Like many of Harry’s fans, I’ve been following his career for decades. The late night Channel 4 shows which tried to capture some of that madness, but felt a little half baked and then the time he struck gold with TV Burp . That weekly ITV review was a perfect marriage of an age-old format and a blissfully surreal comedian poking fun at the most inane TV moments of the week. For a decade I watched every episode, and those catchphrases would become part of everyday speak. And when he did similar things on Sky and ITV ( Alien Fun Capsule ), nothing would make me laugh as long or as hard.

All of which brings us back to one rain-lashed night in York and that gig. The thing about Harry is he doesn’t seem to have aged a day in 20-plus years. The big collar, shiny head, specs and suit are such an iconic uniform that we feel we’re in safe hands from the minute he walks on stage. There’s no warm-up act, just a film involving Michael Parkinson, factory production, random words, and… well I’ll stop there as it clearly makes no sense but does a perfect job of setting the scene for what follows.

Harry bounds on stage and launches into a routine about the difference between ‘tray bakes’ and ‘tear and shares’. A routine… that goes on all night. Makes no sense on page, but on stage? It’s so infectious that I find myself yelling: “Tray bake!” long after the show has finished to a mate.

“Anything is possible”

Another running theme is about life in the 1970s, and it’s here that Harry gets rather dark, but still insanely funny. Oh, and visual gags about a baby elephant; having something in his shoe, or maybe his sock, and Gary (the son from his first marriage), who makes a noise like a dog chewing on a bone and comes out with a series of one-liners. Harry (or is it Gary?) fluffs one gag about an ark, which only adds to the comedy factor. There’s also stuff about a clown, inflatable packing bags from China, and songs beginning with certain letters.

When an ice cream walks onto the stage at half time, yes really, we all take a well-earned rest.

Okay, a lot of the above may have happened in the first or second half. It’s all a bit of a blur now. I do know it’s one of the best comedy gigs I’ve seen since this time last year when Tim Minchin played Blackpool. That involved an epic trek from Yorkshire in a hire car, so just going to York was an absolute dream by comparison.

On the subject of cars, Harry does a routine about a certain car-buying service and an alleged queue-jumper which had the audience in hysterics. It also involves a story which sounded like he’d quoted a whole chapter of the bible, and a process for calming down that involves five-minute rice, four-minute rice and so on.

By the time he wraps things up, the audience look a little bemused. Is he coming back? Is the show over? Did that just happen? Am I a tray bake or a tear and share? We eventually file out onto the rainy streets and some sort of normality returns.

What an extraordinary few days it’s been. Last week I saw Bob Dylan play Hull and this week Harry Hill played York. The only way things could have been more surreal is if they did a double act where Harry spent most of the night behind a piano and Bob paraded round the stage in a big-collared shirt singing about tray bakes. I’ve realised that just about anything is possible on stage, and also know that Hill is such a polarising comedian that not everyone will be on his wavelength (as my better half will testify). I do know that when Harry returns one day, I’ll be there, still debating whether I’m a nicely sliced selection of baked goods or a doughy commodity for dividing up between friends.

If laughter is the best medicine, Harry Hill has just given everyone at the GOH York an overdose. And thank heavens for that.

Harry Hill review – reliably, joyously madcap as ever

Milton Keynes theatre While not quite reaching previously attained heights of absurdity, the comic still pulls off a successful stream of nonsense

I t’s been a decade of tumultuous change since Harry Hill last toured. But for Hill, some corner of a comedy stage will forever be nonsense – a timeless land where rapping to the Crossroads theme, dressing up as an elephant and making ventriloquist’s dolls vomit always has a home. Pedigree Fun finds the 58-year-old neither looking nor acting a day older than when Sausage Time toured in 2013 – even if its cavalcade of idiocy doesn’t quite (or at least not tonight) scale the heights of its predecessor.

The only instance of Hill acting his age rather than his shoe size is with a running gag about the generation gap. Millennials and their juniors are teased wickedly about their meagre inheritance as he brags about the hardiness cultivated by a death-defying 70s upbringing. There is more wickedness in the mix than previous shows – see several Hitler jokes and a gag about the paedophile TV stars of yesteryear (“You’ve got to hand it to them, they were natural entertainers”).

This visual and verbal tomfoolery flows in such a spate that there’s always something coming to make you laugh. Hill tutors us in the four basic shapes of chicken nugget and mimes bathing himself with a wet-wipe, but the standout moments are the bigger set-pieces: casting an audience volunteer as a rescue elephant, say, then manoeuvring them into a slapstick duet with an ironing board. There’s a winningly freewheeling shaggy-dog story about a recipe box delivery, and – tonight’s undisputed showstopper – a socks-based physical comedy number that finds our host dragged, writhing, across the stage.

At such moments, a Harry Hill gig is just a joyous place to be. But there are a few fallow periods between the fertile ones here; moments when you can admire the dottiness of what Hill is doing (a non sequitur Coleridge recital, for example) without finding it especially funny. An oft-repeating onscreen joke dividing foodstuffs, famous people and more into “traybakes” or “tear-and-shares” overstays its welcome without ever really getting the audience on side. This isn’t always nonsense at its zenith, then, but a hoot all the same.
