In the GUV’NOR’S twentieth year, Anchor Bay Entertainment will release the multi-award-winning AL MURRAY, THE PUB LANDLORD’s new show on DVD. Already a critical hit on the road, One Man One Guv’nor sees the GUV hold forth as the King Cnut of Common Sense, holding back a tide of bottled beer and ninny state nonsense.
Join THE PUB LANDLORD in energetic form as he guarantees to explain the entire world financial system in under half a pint; asks how pulled pork can be traditional if nobody had heard of it 18 months ago; proves why all the political parties are a joke, while bringing together a manifesto for his own unique form of Guv’norment; shows why youth is wasted on the young; reflects on the Scottish Referendum; wonders who really needs teachers when you have Google; and refreshes our memory on a poignant message from possibly one of the greatest Britons of all time. All this while getting to know, and sometimes even getting amongst, a crying-with-laughter-while-also-possibly-simultaniously-terrified audience as only the inimitable GUV’NOR can.
This DVD also includes the must-have exclusive extra for any PUB LANDLORD super-fan of a 2009 sell-out, one-time-only performance where the GUV relearned and reprised his previously unrecorded 1997 King of Beers live show at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe.

What the press has already said about One Man, One Guvnor:
“Murray’s affectionate, double-edged satire feels as fresh as ever… No character-based comedy act of recent times, with the possible exception of Steve Coogan’s Alan Partridge, has been so successful or become such an institution… One man, two hours of ingenious, silly, near-the-knuckle bliss. ★ ★ ★ ★”
Dominic Cavendish, The Daily Telegraph
“Murray is on exuberant form, splashing the audience with both his beer and his ideas… And he’s sharply with the zeitgeist (although he would hate that word)… He’s a landlord, but really he’s also the rag-and-bone man of Broken Britain, taking a load of crumbled pieces and transforming them into something very sellable, deftly entertaining ★ ★ ★ ★ ”
Alex Hardy, The Times
