Having consulted with top Harley Street specialists, the St Anne’s Jombulance Brigade and Professor Witty, (who I never found funny?) the one that did Covid, (the bald one), Count Arthur Strong has decided to gradually phase in his farewell to the nation with a tour over a, as yet to be specified, number of parts because of the likelihood of people doing cold turkey in theatres over him. Whilst partial himself to a bit of cold turkey, particularly with some sliced up gherkin and a squirt of salad cream in a sandwich, it is banned in most theatre auditoriums, (apart from in the north east), because of it getting trodden into the carpets etc, and the cumulative smell. To avoid any inconvenience, you can now watch Arthur in the comfort of your own home filmed live during this never to be forgotten start to his farewell tour.

After many years of giving his wonderful lecture talks of his he does, Count Arthur Strong has at last bowed to substantial pubic demand and allowed himself be talked into making the show about himself for once. And that had never occurred to him before because of him being highly magnanimous. Recorded live at The Tyne Theatre & Opera House, Newcastle.

As well as being the all round entertainer we all know and love from the telly, Count Arthur Strong is also a lifelong fan of astronomy, since having been given a microscope, or whatever it is they use, for Christmas when he was a small precocious baby. In fact it's said the first word he spoke was 'Uranus'. In this, his brand new show, he seamlessly combines the very best of showbiz entertainment you'll currently find, in the world, possibly, as he wrestles with some of the big questions that all round entertainers shy away from. Are we alone in the universe? Is there life on Mars bars? 2lbs of potatoes. Packet of ginger nuts. Don't lose this shopping list.

Count Arthur Strong is a faded star from the golden days of variety, prone to delusions of grandeur, selective memory loss and the blurting out of malapropisms. He was never as famous as he thinks he was... or still thinks he is. Believing that another great entertainment triumph is only a phone call away, Arthur spends his day making the most of any opportunity that comes along - gaining a free lunch or selling a dodgy foot-spa he doesn't want - creating chaos and confusion wherever he goes, blissfully unaware that he has done so.

Filmed during his now legendary Edinburgh Fringe breakout run in 2002, this limited re-release is now available to order. This is Arthur as he was then… any resemblance to any other Count Arthur Strong, living or dead, is purely coincidental. At the time, we described the show thus: Count Arthur is a pot-pouri of E L Wisty, Captain Mainwaring and Basil Faulty. He has reached a certain age of forgetfulness, with slight deafness resulting in sporadic and unnecessary shouting and stubborn cantankerousness. The Pyramids! The Sphinx! Falafels! Sir Elgin Marbles! The remarkable Count Arthur Strong delivers an instructional talk on the mysteries of Ancient Egypt and turns back the sands of time with the aid of a spectacular slide show.

Count Arthur Strong, showbiz legend and raconteur, reminds us just what we've been missing since his last television series, ‘The Robin Hood Club’, was axed in 1960 something. With the added bonus of previously unreleased footage from Arthur’s career – ranging from Desk Sergeant in Dixon of Doc Green, to the one time host of Ask The Family – and a rumour of a surprise start guest appearance, the celebration of Arthur’s illustrious career is a show not to miss. As Arthur himself says, “Wouldn't it be wonderful if you could just turn the telly on after a hard day at the abattoir…or whatever it is you do… and there I was, smiling back at you, in my own programme again, again.”
