Just watched this again for the first time in years and am shaking my head at the pure quality of it. That this was done in one take is almost unbelievable. A pure masterclass in comedy monologue, but such a lesson in subtlety and sadness as well. So many themes and emotions are crammed into the five minutes it’s hard to unpack them all. How does the performer makes us both pine for and revile at the things he describes. Perhaps because each of us was once a member of his party, and in a way the story involves us all. How melancholy is the feeling of these years drifting away beneath the bridge of life.

I think we can all identify with the character Thomas plays; either in people we know or ourselves. His delusional view of himself is what keeps him upbeat and positive, regardless of the variety of hopeless situations he finds himself in. Very clever and well executed piece of self deprecating comedy. Have seen a few of Thomas' videos and often seen comments like 'Why hasn't he got his own TV show' In a selfish way I'm glad he hasn't as no doubt the very essence would be lost by 'big production influence' The low budget static camera phone and 4-6 minute monologue wouldn't be right for TV but fits in perfectly with what Thomas does here.
