These are dark days. The world is seething with imbeciles and poltroons. Everywhere the careless and thoughtless are charging about the place in hulking 4x4s, or inviting Channel 4 to come around rather than clean their own homes. So comedian Chris Addison has written CAUTIONARY TALES FOR GROWN-UPS - poems to illustrate the dangers of modern behaviour.The tales include:* The Gloucestershire Horse Club, Who posed Naked for a Charity Calendar.* Phillip, who talked only in Management Speak* Myfanwy, Who answered an Email from a Nigerian Bank Manager * and Fiona and Dave, who had a Wacky WeddingSparklingly wicked and cunningly illustrated, this is a hilarious Struwelpeter for the twenty-first century.

Look around you. The world is going to hell. Standards have fallen, values have been pawned, young people think ''innit'' is a word and decent, honest citizens can''t walk down the street without being set upon by an exploding terrorist or globally-warmed to death. We need to pick ourselves up. We need to rebuild this Once Great Nation. But, most of all, we need to be sure it''s all somebody else''s fault.

Award-winning comedian Chris Addison explores the funny side of human evolution and Western civilisation in two BBC Radio 4 spoof lecture seriesChris Addison – the thinking idiot''s pretend anthropologist – takes us on a comic journey through the vast and rich subject of human history in these eight hilarious comedy lectures. Aided by Professor Austin Herring (aka Geoffrey McGivern), Dan Tetsell and Jo Enright, who put their considerable talents to use in sketches illustrating the lectures, he examines how Homo sapiens became Top Species, charts the rise and fall of the Western world and looks at what’s next for the future of mankind.In the Sony Gold Award-winning show The Ape that Got Lucky, he muses on the topics of Language and Communication, Social Development, Science and Progress and Man or Monkey. He asks why it’s fortunate the original human language developed in Africa rather than England; tells the real story of why our brains are so big; considers how many things, including penicillin and the light bulb, have been discovered by accident and reflects that a lot of the characteristics we imagine to be uniquely human are really just animal ones.The follow-up series Civilization sees Chris explaining why Western civilisation is on its last legs, and pondering how we can build ourselves a new one. Over four themed episodes – Controlling the Universe, Cities and Laws, A Working Society and A Sense of Identity – he investigates the ways we’ve tried to influence our physical environment; the flaws in our urban democratic system; the rocky road we’ve travelled over the past 5,500 years and how ‘culture’ gives civilisation a sense of identity. And most importantly, he reveals why he chose to spell ‘civilisation’ with a Z…Cast and creditsStarring Chris Addison, with Geoffrey McGivern, Jo Enright and Dan TetsellWritten by Chris Addison and Carl CooperProduced by Simon NichollsFirst broadcast on BBC Radio 4, 4-25 August 2005 (The Ape That Got Lucky), 5-26 April 2006 (Civilization)© 2024 BBC Studios Distribution Ltd.
