ThreeWeeks and Me: Andrew Clover

Andrew Clover: Love Rules

Andrew Clover

As a lover of love I wanted to be inspired, or at least instructed, by a show called ‘Love Rules’ but this badly-judged ‘comedy’ isn’t the show it promised to be. Cloves is a lively and charismatic performer but he talks mostly about marriage and fatherhood, alienating subject matter for a twenty-something single female. I felt a bit like a leper, denied membership to the Relationship Club for yet another fucking year and before I knew it I wanted a bottle of chardonnay desperately. I laughed a grand total of once, when some bloke was asked why his previous relationship failed and his current lady said “Because he went to prison”. Awkward and off-topic, there is no love here.
