At one point during his bravura two-and-a-half-hour show, Unrealtime, the stand-up Ross Noble compares his act to the interminable, logic-defying US TV series 24: "My name's Ross Noble, and this is the longest gig of my life." He goes on to apologise for its not being "the most linear show you'll ever see".
