The Adventures of John and Tony is no less surreal than Mr Silly's Nonsenseland. John Hegley and Simon Munnery team up for this unusual comedy that harnesses the best of both these performers' talents. Hegley is the master of the anecdote and can pluck at the heart strings as easily as he can make you giggle. Munnery's speciality, on the other hand, is the delivery of a non-sequitur punchline. There's something reminiscent of The Goons in this tale of camping trip gone awry. Just when you think you've worked out from which direction the comedy's coming, you're caught unawares by an unexpected gag. Guaranteed to put a smile on the face of even the lovelorn.
