Paul Tonkinson - War Stories
Paul Tonkinson discusses his recent journeys to entertain the troups in Cosovo and Iraque, hence 'War '.
It was difficult for me to see how he could produce an upbeat show of these experiences but he does. The facts that the situations are so tense the men crave a sense of normality and some laughter.
It seems that almost anything goes and despite the briefings to the contrary (no gags about Americans or officers) these were the subjects which went down best.
It wasn’t just the gigs he was telling us about even getting out there was an adventure or disaster depending on how you look at it.
Very entertaining and funny despite the subject matter.
