Synopsis

Following positive reviews in Australia, New Zealand, and the UK, Bill Bailey brought his show *Qualmpeddler* to the Hammersmith Apollo in London. The performance combined stand-up comedy, storytelling, music, and traditional wit, drawing on his own experiences and observations of contemporary life. Topics included cut-price shark diving, the hiding skills of dentists, a theory of cognitive dissonance and internet shopping, Mandarin ambiguity, religious dubstep, and fashioning replacement hamsters. The show featured musical mash-ups, multi-lingual riffs, films, songs, philosophical musings, and humor on a grand scale, along with the presence of an impressive owl. *Qualmpeddler* was described as "part rock-concert, part political discourse, part philosophical enquiry... masterfully constructed... the thinking person’s comedian..." by the *Herald Sun* in Melbourne.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 6

These are the principals we have on file — the full crew ran to the hundreds. Every film this size was made by far more hands than any credits list ever names.

Why a floor?

This is a minimum, not a total. We only count the credits we’ve captured so far, and coverage is uneven — a blockbuster might show a few hundred names while another of the same size shows a couple dozen. The real crews all ran into the thousands. The number here only grows as full credits are enriched — so we frame it as a floor, never a headcount.
