Meet James: a lovelorn, supremely self-centered and deeply bitter sort of chap, who just wants everything to work out for the (read: his) best.
His life falls apart when he discovers the mysterious Goggles of Future Past - a device designed to show you a vision of your future, only to immediately cut off the possibility of that same future forever.
Only someone deeply narcissistic would be tempted to look through them - and of course, James is that narcissist.
Strewn with a cavalcade of silly misfits conjured up for your viewing pleasure, James Hamilton Is So Lonely is another surreal march into the imagination behind multi award winning sketch group Casual Violence - who, in case you’re asking, is managing just fine by himself, thank you. He don’t need them. HE DON’T. HE PROMISES. JUST FINE. JUST FINE.
