Show 12: Paul Duncan McGarrity: Today is the Good Old Times of Tomorrow

Paul Duncan McGarrity is a tall, energetic, Mumford-and-Son's-looking Yorkshireman (only he had the look first) with a show about nostalgia, history and facts.

He has some nice ponderings based on his time as a professional archaeologist (it's still a proper job), and flights of whimsy when he imagines a hawk army saving him from youths.

He's a charasmatic stage performer with a lot of energy and conviction in his material, but sadly the jokes just don't really hit the mark most of the time.

Plus points for trying though.
