Award-winning comic Dan Antopolski heads for Ludlow

IT takes a special ear to hear the similarity between the names of Ellie Goulding and Elliot Gould, but comedian Dan Antopolski as John Keller segues the coincidence into a theory about Ellie being the reincarnation of Elliot Gould. “But Elliot Gould is still alive,” points out the doctor interviewing him. “Is he though?” asks John.

The film is one of three featuring John Keller, a conspiracy theorist with more than a small suggestion of one-time Hereford United player David Icke, though in Keller’s case, there’s not a master race of reptiles - in the reality he inhabits, ducks rule the world.

“The stuff I wrote for these films was virtually indistinguishable from the things he says. Highly articulate, the majority of what he says is credible and that mesmerises you into thinking - briefly - that he’s making sense.”

Dan, winner of last year’s funniest Joke of the fringe*, has been a stand-up comedian for the past 17 years, the only career he’s ever known. “I started because friends of mine were doing it. I went along to see my friend and he was good, but others weren’t and I realised you don’t have to be good, you just have to show up and I caught the bug quickly.”
