December is more known at Avanti HQ for book keeping. Watching a bit of Christmas telly I saw a program on channel five, Ken Dodd <a href=\"mailto:http:\/\/watchseriestv.stream\/ken-dodd-in-his-own-words-2017\/\">\u2018In His Own Words\u2019<\/a>. As usual there was lots to enjoy, watching Doddy is always a bit of a master class, he is the kind of multitalented clown\/grotesque that in a different age would have been a court jester. Watching him interviewed, one notices that he is always torn between cracking a joke (from his huge reportoire) or trying to answer in a straight forward way, this is something many performers feel when in a meeting or more formal situation. I watched a bit more of his stuff on the Youtube and his comedy <a href=\"mailto:https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch%3Fv=C4znpOdPRrg\">vent act<\/a> is well worth a look.
