Jack Dee presents performances by some of his favourite stand-up acts at the London theatre. First on the bill is legendary American comedienne Joan Rivers
Acting
Rivers' timing at 71 is criminal — she's faster than comics half her age.
Production

This was filmed during Rivers' 'comeback' phase after years of industry blacklisting — she treats the Apollo like a revenge weapon.
The 2004 timing matters: Rivers was simultaneously starring on reality TV (The Apprentice, I'm a Celebrity), making this her 'respectable' art form defense.
