The Food Industry

The food industry kicks off Andrew's probe behind lazy assumptions about four possible threats to British society. From 2013.

Andrew Maxwell is one of the UK's most informed and fearless stand ups.

In this series of one-off stand up shows, he uses his trademark intelligence and political incisiveness to dig behind the clich茅s and assumptions about four possible threats to British society:

* The Food Industry
* The internet
* Drugs
* Nationalism

Andrew kicks off with a look at the food industry.

From horse-burgers right up to snail ice-cream, it seems like there's something wrong with every rung of the food ladder.

But given that food is essential to survival, shouldn't we be clearer about what it is we want from the industry that provides it?

A series showcasing a comedian at the top of his abilities tackling difficult and important 'slow news' topics with a depth and perceptiveness that remains outside the remit of mainstream 'topical' comedy.

Written and performed by Andrew Maxwell.

Script edited by Paul Byrne.

Producer: Ed Morrish
