    Got this for xmas as im one of Billy's biggest fans and have all his DVD's.

    Have to say i was disappointed with the new DVD, The amount of his old material that was in it was a bit of a joke and half the DVD is full of all his old jokes.

    Big let down imo

    Yeah I know what you mean, I seen him back in 2001 in Belfast and I was dissapointed he used so many old jokes - once you hear a joke and know the punchline it loses most of it's power the second time around, I have no desire to see him again.

    Didn't Eddie Izzard get in trouble a few years back for using old material from previously released DVDs on new tours?

    Yep thats true about Eddie Izzard.

    I feel if they are going to release a DVD that it should be new material and not half of his old stuff. Lost a lot of respect for Billy with this DVD feel cheatd out of the money

    Not really a TV thread. Moving to the Standup Comedy forum.
