	Al Murray - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Al Murray (born Bedford, 1968) is an English comedian best known for his stand-up persona, the Pub Landlord, a xenophobic public house licensee.
		Murray's theatre show with this character My Gaff, My Rules was shortlisted for an Olivier Award in 2002, and he has also appeared as the central character in the television series Time Gentlemen Please as well as a number of other television appearances.
		Murray is a direct descendant of William Makepeace Thackeray.

	Ross Noble / Al Murray \| Theatre Reviews \| tobyyoung.co.uk
		Murray himself is a nice, Oxford-educated, middle-class boy--a direct descendant of Thackeray's--and you get the impression that he's created the Pub Landlord so he can give voice to the kind of jingoistic sentiments he'd never be allowed to utter as himself.
		Murray makes various attempts to distance his own persona from the character--he makes it clear, for instance, that the Pub Landlord is a pathetic loser when it comes to the opposite sex--but his heart isn't really in it.
		I caught Al Murray at a warm-up gig, honing the material for his forthcoming national tour that begins on October 2.

	Garbled Communications: Live: Al Murray - And Another Thing Tour 2005
		The last time I saw Murray perform it was at the Edinburgh Festival in 2000 and, though the character was still in its formative stage, it was one of the funniest and most wickedly-observed stand-up shows I’ve experienced.
		From the moment Murray wheeled onto the stage driving a bizarre mobile bar contraption, to the big finale involving an unorthodox sing-a-long to “I’m A Believer”, this show had the entire venue in stitches.
		Perhaps saying more about the audience than Murray himself, it was his “Make Poverty Geography” gag and his boasts about raising money for guide-dogs by organising an illegal charity dog-fight (“one of them was blinded, which was a bit ironic now that I think about it”) that went down particularly well.

	London theatre comedy Al Murray The Pub Landlord on stage in London's West End. Theater guide and tickets
		"Al Murray, the Pub Landlord, returning for a season at the Playhouse near Charing Cross, is the voice of Little England squire, pulling a pint for the gentleman and a glass of white wine for the lady.
		Murray is an original, and his character of the Little Englander publican with the shaved head and the barking-mad opinions completely dominates the stage and creates a fascinatingly ambiguous response in his audience.
		Murray's character looks like a prototypical member of the BNP, but unlike Alf Garnett, to whom he's clearly closely related, his prejudices are all safe targets, and the show never strays really dangerously into the realms of the politically incorrect.

		Murray writes his own scripts and stands alone, taking full responsibility for the tirades he delivers to packed venues up and down the country.

	Al Murray Review
		Two thing are especially notable about Murray — firstly, he's a character comedian (in fact, the name Al Murray doesn't appear on any of the promotional material for this run).
		The second notable aspect of Murray's character is that he's an utter twat.
		Some critics argue that Murray's character is a one-trick pony; that knuckle-headed prejudices won't sustain a two-hour show.

		Al Murray — The Pub Landlord is set to bring his brand new show to Vicar St. on June 25th for one night only.
		Al Murray (The Guv’nor) is back with his fantastic new show and he’s even more opinionated than ever.
		Al Murray’s character (The Guv’nor) is the archetypal Middle Englander, inflamed, but also petrified of anything outside his field of expertise, which is pretty much everything except for his prized pub and what he reads in the daily mail.

	Comedian: Al Murray
		Al was a boarder at Bedford School and went on to read modern history at St Edmund Hall, Oxford, where he started performing comedy.
		Murray is intelligent and inventive enough to drop the act and move on.
		Murray is without doubt a real master of the put-down, but disappointingly seemed to have no real material to fall back on.

		Al was nominated for the prestigious Perrier Award (at the Edinburgh Festival) four times before he finally won it last year, paving the way for his new show on Sky One.
		But if you're going to compare him with anybody, Al thinks it should be Barry Humphries, He's kept that going for ever and no one goes this guy is Dame Edna doing the same old joke' - they just love it and they know where they are with it as well.
		Al admits he's had to learn to adapt after playing to the audience for so long.

	theatreguide-london-al murray
		At first glance, Al's landlord is the very epitome of the great British Bulldog spirit gone to seed, something that wouldn't travel well outside of England let alone the outside world where foreigners and their funny habits lurk.
		After all, the more Al concentrates on the very 'Britishness' (well, Englishness is nearer the mark) that creates such a chauvinistic caricature, the closer he gets to striking an international chord.
		A man therefore in total control, Murray has a wicked line in audience-baiting so be warned: the front rows - oh, at least the first 20 - are off limits if you don't want your lily-livered lifestyle made public or have a pint glass foisted on you in place of your common-as-muck beer can.

	The Council
		Albert Murray was born in 1916 in the tiny south Alabama spot in the road, Nokomis.
		Murray has been O'Connor Professor of Literature at Colgate University, visiting professor of literature at the University of Massachusetts, writer-in-residence at Emory University, and Paul Anthony Brick lecturer at the University of Missouri.
		Murray said, " a Bearden works on the beholder not only as a work of art, but as something even deeper; a totemistic device and talisman for keeping the blues away." He could just as easily been describing his own work.

		To make things easier Al Murray, the pleasant one (pictured), refers to his on-stage character as "the guv'nor".
		Mind you, Murray doesn't mind the guv'nor, the character, pulled together at the last minute in 1994 when his then band was looking for a pre-show bit of fun.
		Murray is getting closer to Australians than ever now that he is utilising a lot of audience interaction in his shows, often running gags through the show that entwine audience members.

		Listening to Murray Perahia's second volume of Bach Keyboard Concertos is akin to viewing favorite paintings that have been restored with subtle care.
		The first thing one notices about Murray Perahia's latest recording of Bach keyboard concertos is the brisk tempo, the ebullient phrasing, and rhythmically incisive orchestral playing that carries the listener along from note to note in breathless anticipation.
		Which brings us to the second thing: Murray Perahia as soloist, and the dawning awareness that we may quite possibly be hearing the greatest Bach interpreter of our day.

	Review: Al Murray - And Another Thing...
		Not that you would ever expect Al Murray to be an overtly political comic, tackling the issues of the day head-on.
		There are tirades against ‘Muslamic Fundamentaloids,’ a silly runny gag (with a fine climax) about how the gig would sound if conducted in German, a liberal sprinkling of laugh-winning local references and a gloriously over-the-top portrait of Churchill’s drunkenness and ill-health, to name but four highlights.
		And Another Thing… turns out to be one of his strongest shows for years, showing that Murray’s flirtation with reality TV and appearing as ‘himself’ on screen have done absolutely nothing to dent his ability where he works best: on the live stage.

	James W. Murray: Current Projects - Anoxic and Suboxic Ocean Environments
		One of the most intriguing discoveries during that cruise was the suboxic zone (simultaneous low oxygen and low sulfide) of about 50m thickness separating the oxic surface water and the sulfide rich anoxic deep water (Murray et al., 1989; Codispoti et al., 1991; Murray et al., 1995).
		The origin of this suboxic zone is uncertain but probably is related to oxidation-reduction reactions involving Mn, Fe, N and S species and the complex horizontal ventilation that occurs at these depths (Murray et al., 1991; Buesseler et al., 1991; Murray, 1995; Lee et al (submitted)).
		Recent UW chemistry graduate student, Tamara Nameroff, studied the present day and paleogeochemistry of the redox sensitive elements (Mn, Fe, U, V, Mo, Re) to obtain evidence to evaluate the hypothesis that the oxygen minimum was less intense in the past.

		Al Murray is a bit like a good wine (for the ladies) he gets better with age.
		Essentially it is the same show each tour, yet it is this familiarity which keeps you in a safe haven, while Al battles through completely new material, leading the audience along on this riotous evening out.
		Al's unique blend of facial expressions, and brilliant stories and jokes, along with a strong character make this show better than a pub ploughman's.
