Part 2 of Episode 1 of the TV thriller Comics by Lynda La Plante. Johnny Lazar, traumatized by a childhood tragedy, is a down and out American comedian who is given one last chance to save his career by going to England to work and tour the Working Men's Clubs around the country. However, on his first night in the UK he becomes witness to a murder and finds his life in serious danger...

Starring Tim Guinee, Lennie James, Michelle Fairley, Danny Webb, Christopher Fulford, Frank Grimes, Graham Fellows, Jenny Galloway, Alex Norton and Stephen Greif, this is from an old video tape of the actual broadcast on Channel 4 on June 6th 1993, complete with the original adverts. I actually came across this tape at a car boot sale some years ago, so this is not my own recording, and please note that the credits for this first episode end a little abruptly. Also be warned, this is a dark gritty mystery, so it also contains violence, swearing and nudity.
