Hoff the Record

A gentle, self-deprecating cringe-comedy that coasts on celebrity awkwardness and improvised silliness, easy to dip into and mildly amusing rather than laugh-out-loud.

Comedy

Starring

Fergus Craig, David Hasselhoff, Mark Quartley

Overview

Shot like a documentary, the semi-improvised comedy Hoff The Record follows TV legend David Hasselhoff - playing a highly fictionalized version of himself - as he arrives in the UK in an attempt to reignite his flagging career. It's been thirty years since he rose to worldwide fame in Baywatch and Knight Rider and things have since gone a little stale for The Hoff. Will a move across the Atlantic change his luck?
