The poignant recording of his last stand up show in front of a select audience of comedians.Absolute gold,from the jokes to the wonderful stories about his heroes plus a nice and very honest walk on from Mike Yarwood.

"You're playing ALL the wrong notes" etc

I thought the BBC were brave taking on Poirot after David Suchet owned the part for so long, but they've gone down a much darker route and it's looking very good.
And it helps that I've forgotten the ending
