Count Arthur Strong is Alive and Unplugged
Count Arthur Strong returned to TV earlier this year.
Having wrapped up his Sound of Mucus tour earlier this year, Count Arthur Strong will return to the road with Alive and Unplugged.
The news comes as his show returned to TV in 2017, welcoming back Michael (Rory Kinnear), Eggy (Dave Plimmer), John The Watch (Andy Linden), and cafe owners Bulent (Chris Ryman) and his sister Sinem (Zahra Ahmadi), led by Steve Delaney in the title role.
In a sensational self-description of the show, Count Arthur Strong says:
Alone, solo and by himself, with no one with him, the show business Colossasus (check that) takes us back on a journey through his early career. Using the latest technology and all that (I presume we’ve got a projector?) he will be delving into his own personal box of video cassettes and talking us (you) through the highlights of his glittering tv career, with many of his trademark stories we’ve come to love him for. If you only buy one ticket for something this year make sure it’s this and bring someone with you. You won’t be disappointed by him (me).
