Synopsis

*This Is the Show* was recorded in front of a sell-out crowd on the final night of Dara O Briain's record-breaking nine-night run at the Hammersmith Apollo. O Briain delivers with his usual energy, blending spontaneous audience interaction with sharp material and a finale featuring celebrity guests. "O Briain is loud and large and fast and feisty... but the way he tells 'em is a joy" – *The Times*. "O Briain has a laser eye for the absurd and the spurious amid the too-much-stuff with which we shore up our hapless lives" – *The Guardian*. "Breakneck genius... the entire audience was hanging on every sentence. And every sentence ended in a laugh. It was stuffed with dazzling observations, vivid vignettes and glorious gags." – *Evening Standard*.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 8

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.
