Comedian, writer, broadcaster and all-round British institution Arthur Smith and bask in an evening of laughter and off-the-wall humour with one of the 'alternative comedians' who shook up the 80s and 90s. Expect an evening of sublime playfulness, crammed with jokes, anecdotes, short stories, poems and songs. Arthur is simply one of our funniest and most original comic performers and is guaranteed to bring you a night of hilarity, mirth and scandal... With a touch of rudeness thrown in for good measure. The film that dare not speak its name. This challenging and provocative documentary takes a look on all sides of the infamous F-word. It's taboo, obscene and controversial, yet somehow seems to permeate every single aspect of our culture - from Hollywood... to the schoolyard... to the Senate floor in Washington D.C. It's the word at the very centre of the debate on Freedom of Speech - and everyone seems to have an opinion. The documentary examines how the word is impacting our world today through interviews, film and television clips, music, and original animation by Oscar nominee Bill Plymptom. Q&A with broadcaster, commentator and grumpy old man Arthur Smith. Arthur Smith - Burning Issues: F*ck - A Documentary website.
