Doc brown dissects comedy in shanghai

British comedian Doc Brown described his China debut last week as "one of the greatest gigs of my career" and said he was keen to return to Shanghai because "anything is possible here".

"And that's what made Thursday (in Shanghai) so special, because I was connecting with people," he said, "especially that bit with the barmaid (whose phone kept ringing) ... She hated me, but it created a moment, and you've got to be in the moment."

Brown, aka Londoner Ben Smith, performed at Zapata's, a popular drinking hole in Shanghai, to a crowd of about 180 people.
