' Superlative, intelligent comedy ' - The Telegraph

Based on his Perrier-nominated Edinburgh show. Chris Addison's Civilization is a brilliant series of comic enlecturements concerning one of the biggest subjects of all -Western Civilization. In all of history, civilization has only been independently established in China, India. Mesopotamia and, ooh. three other places that are on the tip of my tongue. This one, the oldest and Westernest, is on its last legs, so sooner rather than later we're going to have to build ourselves a new one. And how are we going to do that, then? Eh?

Chris Addison's Civilization explores exactly what we need to create a new, shinier, bettererer civilization (apart from planning permission - that's obvious). Accompanying Chris on his journey is noted expert and renowned polymath Professor Austin Herring ( Geoff McGivern ), Dan Tetsell and Jo Enright are also on hand to illustrate the jokes, stories, wild conjecturing, half-truths and even facts that make up the lectures. Elegantly following on from his debut series The Ape That Got Lucky (winner of the Gold Sony Radio Award for Comedy).
