Mark Thomas Live Comedy Show (60minutes)

Undercurrents launched their DVD of radical stand up political comedy at various festivals this week.

Mark Thomas the comedian reveals the inside story on how he upset the U.S secret service by putting a bounty on the life of G.W Bush. Mark also displays how he obtained police surveillance images of himself under the Data Protection Act. Watch the DVD and find out why the funny man was forced to sing for his life underneath a busload of East London arms dealers. Find out why US leaders are either Coca Cola presidents or Pepsi ones.

Bonus extras included on the DVD include 'Reach for the Sky'- exploring the activism against UK aviation expansion. The award winning documentary 'Globalisation and the Media' is also included. The film explores both the mainstream and the alternative media coverage of the G8 summit in Genoa. The mass blockades of the summit resulted in the death of one protester and hundreds of casualties. Interviews include CNN president Chris Cramer and journalist George Monbiot.

Stopping only to consider masturbating in a London police cell, the comic will take you on a mind bending trip through Scotland, go nought to sixty in India, and help you discover what 'the real thing' is in Columbia. This is a DVD not to be missed.
