Or, in other words...

THE TIMES

Bienvenue to the madhouse. The ancient art of franglais gets a new lease of life on Priorité à Gauche, a wry spoof of all things gallic…Taking their cue from all-time greats such as Johnny Hallyday, the pair pose as Jean-François and Didier, two pop celebrities from the other end of the Channel Tunnel. Naturellement, we are not so familiar with their oeuvre, but that does not deter them from serenading us with greatest hits, which include some painfully funny Parisian rap…Jean-François and Didier are, as they like to remind us, very much 'dans la maison'.

THE DAILY TELEGRAPH

... a pair of spoof try-hard Parisians, who delight in linguistic faux pas... It's lovely stuff, yet so much more than just glib Frog-bashing... Add to all this the duo's exceptionally relaxed, good-natured stage presence and you have one of the most engaging, thought-provoking nights out on this year's Fringe. (Mark Monahan) 'Without doubt the find of the Fringe so far, a glorious hour of cod Europop and cross-Channel misunderstandings' (Fiona Mountfield)

THE HERALD

...the duo's act is deft and witty, never descending to base Franco-phobia. ...Didier is a joy to behold... In essence Prioritié a Gauche are a winning excercise in a range of classic comedy situations... Embracez les Gauche garcons maintenant, comme une matter de Prioritié. (David Belcher)

THE SCOTSMAN

Last year they were merely megacool. This year they have gone hyper ... It is sheer delight to spend an hour with them ... You'll love it. (Kate Copstick)

LE MONDE

Vêtu d'un tee-shirt bleu-blanc-rouge, rouleur de mécaniques entêté et dragueur ingrat, porté comme il sied sur le pinard, Didi, le chanteur, se trémousse comme un Johnny Hallyday de pacotille revu par Coluche. Sympa, fleur-bleu, un tantinet timide, Jean-François, le conteur, est gêné par le langage cru et les allusions sexuelles cousues de fil blanc de son compère.
Avec un superbe esprit de dérision et une énergie prodigieuse, le duo casse tout ce qui lui tombe dessus : la bouffe britannique, la maladie de la vache folle, les filles anglaises à la fois délurées et puritaines, les beds and breakfasts, l'arrogance. Bavards, sales, volages, fraudeurs... ainsi apparaissent les deux personnages de Didi et de Jean-François, véritables concentrés des traditionnels préjugés d'Albion envers les « grenouilles » (frogs).
Les jeunes comédiens-auteurs anglais, mènent tambour battant le spectacle Priorité à gauche, dans la maison. «L'une des visites essentielles du programme de comédies du Fringe » (Melody Maker), « rafraîchissant, merveilleusement ridicule » (Daily Express), «amusant et original » (Daily Telegraph) : les critiques, eux, portent aux nues ce qu'ils considèrent comme l'un des meilleurs cabarets du festival Fringe (alternatif) d'Edimbourg. Cette parodie des moeurs franco-britanniques fait salle comble tous les soirs au Pleasance Theatre. Le public applaudit à tout rompre les retapes démago et les apostrophes rieuses de Didi et de Jean-François qui tentent d'expliquer par le rire pourquoi, malgré cet amour de la France, les Anglais vouent une détestation cordiale aux Français. Qui le leur rendent bien...
« Les sketches sont de portée universelle et ne nécessitent aucune connaissance du français. On a surtout voulu éviter les stéréotypes. Les deux personnages parlent l'anglais plutôt bien, mais ils butent sur leurs mots pour l'effet de scène. Le show ne se veut pas une critique des Français, mais de la manière dont les Britanniques voient les Français et vice versa », insistent nos deux comédiens.

THREE WEEKS

The highly hyped winners of a Perrier Best Newcomer award live up to their sensational reputation in this pumping stand-up show... the interaction between this duo is impeccable and their command of the audience is absolute. Perhaps most surprising is their highly competent musicianship which will leave you wanting their heavily plugged CD. Priorité à Gauche sont vraiment etoiles. (VK)

THE LIST

This Frockney duo is back with a highly-polished, high-energy routine .. As with all good double acts the dynamics between les deux, Jean Francois and Didi, really did give the show its snap, crackle, and pop. (Ruth Hedges)

THE STAGE

Priorité a Gauche is head and shoulders above the frankly uninspired comedy pack, by virtue of its professionalism, its humour and its imagination. ...full of superb musical comedy. ...it works beautifully. It is smart, it is sexy, and it's bloody funny. Encore. (Alison Freebairn)

THE AGE, MELBOURNE

An effortless, enjoyable, pleasurable show that keeps you smiling

PARAMOUNT COMEDY

The French rappers are back and even after conquering Europe and especially the Rosbif's they are not blasé about their success so they set out to conquer the U. S. of A.

Jean-Francois and Didier embark on a tour of the US beginning naturally in "la grande pomme" (New York). As it happens they are sacked after the first gig for duping the audience into saying "J'aime les Francais". Booted out of the gig they find themselves down and out in New York then embark on a Thelma and Louise style road-trip through the heartland of America taking in Chicago, San Francisco and the bible belt, tackling misunderstandings, the blues and re-branding Mickey Mouse along the way.

A wry send up of French clichés and stereotypes they are very funny indeed. The audience was enchanted as they go on this musical and cultural compare-and-contrast journey. They touch on American irony (yes, really), food, the litigious nature of US society and cultural misunderstandings. Double entendres abound and clever word play is interwoven through the show.

Musically adept, the pair nimbly pick their way on a number of instruments through varying styles including the blues, hip hop and a wonderful Ry-Cooder-esque slide guitar piece. The music itself is injected with humour and the lyrics are simply hilarious.

The gospel finale is truly inspired!

J'aime Priorite a Gauche! They are f***ing brilliant (excuse my French).
