"Describing Arnold Gutbucket purely as comedy gives no clues as to the fabulous eccentricity of the man. Really original comedians have always been thin on the ground and the likes of Mr Gutbucket are light entertainment treasures. He’s a fine raconteur, sings delightfully silly songs and knows how to work an audience to maximum effect. Great fun."Derek Smith The Stage and Television Today.
