Yes, I think the guys have said in interviews before that some changes will be made in shows as they progress through the tour. Like Chris said in the Indiana Chuckles thread, the guys once said in an interview something like "if you see a show at the start of the tour and one at the end, you'll notice a clear difference in some scenes" so they'll probably rework a few bits during the show if it makes the show funnier or something. I also asked Barry on Facebook the other day if he knows if they'll be making a DVD of this show, but no word back yet. I hope they do make a DVD because even though Liberation went out business ages ago now, Barry said himself on here, whilst Chuckle Trek was on in 2009, that they couldn't arrange one of that show in time, but they apparently "had more time" to get a DVD of A Christmas Chuckle arranged, even though they never made one (although I know there was one recorded by Safire), so hopefully they're gonna have a lot of time to get a DVD of this show arranged? Fingers crossed! Apparently juliebob from on here is going to the Scarborough show today though, I've noticed she's put it on Barry's Facebook page lol I would probably think that they would rework some sketches. I do remember from some of the shows that I went to that when they did the school sketch in "A Christmas Chuckle" they adapted it for the setting and seeing this time Jimmy was dressed up as a Pantomime figure. It would be nice to see a new dvd of a show made. They could probably easily use another company to distribute their dvd but they should have time to do it this time.

Well as I said, we're going to the Southsea show only next month, which I suppose really isn't too far into the tour, but maybe by the time we go and see it in Worthing, I'll notice if they rework a few sketches from the show seeing as it's only 3 dates from the end of the tour. I've noticed as well from that News article I posted yesterday, that they're using one of the sets from Spooky Goings on 2! Personally though, as much as I like the DVD of that show, and all the other ones for that matter lol, I hope it won't be too similar

I went to the show today so I thought I may just post a short review about it but I won't give anything away and spoil it for everyone else. The tour was very good as usual and they have used some original stuff and mixed some material with other material and it works! I won't give much away but for an example Barry sings "Eat Your Greens" while Paul, No Slacking, Stuart and some other characters came in claiming their clothes and forcing Barry to take them off previously seen in the "Spooky Goings On 2" DVD Extra. Then surprisingly I got my stuff signed afterwards as I thought that was a one off for the Audience With... show. Regretfully I forgot to bring my "Goofy Golfers" Video and "Series 1" DVD with me! Will next time though! This time they were more prepared for signings and were ready to take a picture. Managed to have a short chat with them this time and there was a shorter table so they were closer together and easier to communicate with! Paul had a jacket on this time and looked better dressed but all the same in was nice to meet them again and as usual they were really friendly, actually talked to Barry this time. Seeing them afterwards encourages me to go each time now so I can get my video and boxsets signed, but my knees were still shaking.

Wow, sounds like a great show, and Barry singing "Eat your Greens" sounds very excitingly different as I don't think they've ever used that song in a show before

No I don't think they have! I was singing alond though! Whoever said about them reusing a set from Spooky Goings On 2 were right! They did a similar sketch with the picture but this time it didn't involve food! Barry also did the same gag and climbed along the top knocking down the wall and causing Paul to laugh which by now is obvious that it was mean't to happen! That's all I'm saying!

Yeah, I guessed that castle wall gag would be in the show because like I said before, that News article I posted on here the other day showed a photo of them standing in front of the castle set from Spooky Goings on 2. Who's next to see them?

Well, I must admit I was torn over whether to see the show, but the mention of Barry singing Eat Your Greens has decided it for me. Guess I have to now! Lol. The Sheffield date is a bit too close to something else I've got planned, but might try for Lincoln in May.
I notice they're at the Rotherham Civic Theatre on May 26th. This must be a first or at least the first time in long while? I've thought it odd on previous tours that they rarely seem to play in their home town.

Yes I noticed that as well, I bet it'll be great for them to go back as on all the flyers I've collected, they don't seem to have gone back there since the old days (when it was revealed on that documentary "Comedy Maps of Britain" a few years back) I can't believe it's already been almost a year since I saw Barry Potty 2 as well, it's really flown I've also noticed that on the official site, they've got a section where you can post your reviews on the show! I think the ones that have been posted already indicate/imply that the show is amazing, but of course it will be anyway lol ;D The part of the show I'm personally really looking forward to is Barry singing "Eat your Greens" as, as I said before, they've never used that song in a show before, or as far as I'm aware of anyway ; I wonder if there'll be any new songs as well because of that?

Yes I just posted my review about half an hour ago. Looking through the list, currently they have all rated 5 stars which is good. It is good when they sing "Eat Your Greens" although he only sings the chorus and it is very funny when members of the tour come in with various parts of their clothing missing. Well currently they have used Silly You Silly Me, No Slacking, Shake The Barn & Eat Your Greens to my knowledge.

Ah well, I think they obviously just used Eat Your Greens because of the Clothing Nightmare sketch then, as I don't think they've ever used that sketch in an actual live show before either

They've also sung "Oi You" a few times as well and "Blow Your Whistle Barry" which isn't on the CD so I presume it's relatively new. Anyway, I'm really looking forward to the show now. I'm going to see them in about a months time in Oxford. I must admit, I think Barry Potty 2 last year was probably the worst I've been to (still very funny as always though) as pretty much all of the material was repeated from other shows so I was wondering whether Pirates Of The River Rother 2 would be the same. Judging by the reviews so far though, it seems good with some new sketches. This would be my 8th visit to see them.

This'll be our 6th year coming to see the lads this year And I know they did "Oi You!" in Spooky Goings on 2 but I wasn't aware they did it in any other shows, but I was thinking the song "On the Beach" would've been suitable for this show, judging by its theme lol
