Andy Kirkpatrick DVD


In the past five years I've attended over 20 mountain film festivals and seen lectures by many of the worlds top climbers and mountaineers. I think the funniest of all these speakers is Andy Kirkpatrick; more Eddie Izzard than Sir Chris.  

Andy says that he tries not to talk about the actual climbing. He says:

'Climbing is like masturbation; it's fun when you're doing it, but no one else wants to hear about it.' 

In December 2008 Andy asked Hot Aches to join him on the last date of his UK tour and record the performance. We filmed Andy's show in Stornoway on the island of Lewis in the Outer Hebrides. We then mixed this footage with Andy's collection of photos and movies to produce the DVD 'When Hell Freezes Over'.




The DVD is now available from our shop (£11.99), we will be shipping the first orders on Monday 22 June.
