Henning is The German Comedy Ambassador in The United Kingdom. This is not the easiest of jobs because the Germans allegedly do not have a sense of humour. Henning does not find that funny.

It'll All Come Out in the Wash!

You couldn't make it up; surely the German Comedy Ambassador Henning Wehn hasn't bosched out yet another new show? And what's he still doing here anyway? Well, his lack of transferable skills is what keeps him here and his belief that practise makes perfect is what keeps him going. This show is a much needed call to arms. Listen, everyone: stop pondering and hand-wringing. Instead get on your bike and put your face to the grindstone!

Rod (15May22): The show has an interval after ~28min. The reason becomes clear in the second 'half'. Any later and I'm sure people would have left at the interval. The second half is just a sneering rant about lock down, nothing witty or original to add beyond what you would hear (a lot) from people at the pub. The content could work, if delivered by a doctor or nurse who decided to do comedy post pandemic. Henning just comes across as some bloke ranting for ages (and ages) about things he doesn't really understand. Nuance is difficult in comedy, but essential to make this topic funny or interesting. Henning doesn't even try. Henning said, 'in London theaters you have to be good, elsewhere people will watch anything'... Apparently that's true. 1
