AWFUL AWFUL. So awful it was laughable Danny Baker stumbles his way through a DVD full of substandard viewing! Enough said.

Whilst there is a glut of this kind of DVD out there, I doubt any of the others are as watchable as this. Danny Dyer??? Danny Baker on the other hand works his magic, he knows when to let the hapless players actions do the talking, and he knows when to interject. Mr Baker understands the game of football better than most, and his entertaining way with words makes what could otherwise be a mundane parade of human error worth watching. This does seem to be a pretty low budget production, I suspect that Baker got a few chums together and just made something without 3rd party interference - creative license is a vital thing. This means that you don't get any terrible music playing under the action, something that should not be overlooked. It does also mean that Baker gets to do whatever he likes, and whilst this mostly hits, the end sequence where Baker makes stuff up about football for about 10 minutes is pretty hit and miss. Anyway, it is good to have the master back at the wheel - this is easy watching, and worth a look if you enjoyed where this series started "back in the day".

Who can tell? But wanting to make a good OGAOG-video again cannot be the reasons why mr. Baker made this, because he is hardly trying. The first video of his I saw, in 1993, kept me riveted at a monitor at Selfridges, I stood there with a friend laughing out loud (which nearly got us thrown out, one did not do that at Selfridges, a snigger, perhaps, but not serious laughter). It was just so well worked through, so jaw-achingly funny that I have been looking for something like that ever since. But the others I have found has been rubbish, and so I was so glad when I discovered that Mr. Baker had made another. Frank Sinclair may have retired, but there are still strikers getting carried away in defence when spotting a goal in the vicinity. So I ordered it, lined up the boys, brought on the beer, then tried to stop the punters from throwing it at the screen. It was that bad. To me it seems as if he / or the company does not have the rights to the right clips anymore, because most of these were of anonymous players doing uninteresting mistakes. If you remember the old one, avoid this. If you do not, maybe it is good for a few laughs. But not many. Sadly. And the end? Please, do you not have any self-respect?
