Chasing arms dealers, going after Nestle and Adidas, managing to get inside Aldermaston Atomic Weapons Establishment and invading the Millennium Dome, all peppered with politicians and CEOs...
The ground breaking, law changing, corporate shaking show is back. For 7 years, 6 series and a host of specials, The Mark Thomas Comedy Product caused mayhem on Channel 4's airwaves. Before The Revolution Will be Televised, Lee Nelson, Dom Jolly and Balls of Steel, this was the show that set the agenda. It challenged politicians, cost them their careers, was talked about in Parliament, appeared on the front pages of the Guardian and basically had a ball.
Now Mark and the show's producer Geoff Atkinson look back at the programme in a series of YouTube broadcast specials. Discussing their favourite clips, Mark and Geoff will be live with guests to discuss the adventure that was bound to cancel itself before the channel got round to it.
Thomas is a deeply political comic but he’s also playful enough on stage to hold the crowd’s attention." Giggle Beats
