Dave Gorman

You will probably remember Dave Gorman, either from his sell-out Fringe shows a year or two ago and the resulting TV series 'Are You Dave Gorman?' were he set out to find others who share his name and flew around the world to track them down, well that Dave is different from today's version. He's older, wants to write a novel and to prove he is serious he has grown a beard!

Then came a problem, he was informed he was a Googlewhack! This strangely named phenomena is achieved by typing two unrelated word into internet search engine Google and if there is only one resulting site found from the 3 billion sites on the web, well that earns the title of Googlewhack.

The story unfolds that Dave together with the dreaded demon drink and a lot of persuasion from his mates eventually accepts a challenge to track down others who are also Googlewhacks, persuade them to find others and achieve a chain of ten before his 32 birthday.

This quest leads him all around the world meeting many and varied people, but does he achieve his challenge?

Do you really think I'm gonna give away that? No way, kill to get your own ticket. At worst you'll get in excess of 90 minutes superb entertainment in the inimitable Gorman style, at worst like me, you'll be trying to find your own Googlewhacks.
