The Oddballs, Balloon Dancers touring with Jim Davidson's Sinderella Comes Again

The Oddballs is a comedy act and is best known for their balloon dancing act. The Naked Balloon Dance has caused much controversy with an attempt to ban the show from Bury St Edmunds, Suffolk. Saved only by Robert Everitt, Conservative councillor for the Risbygate Ward, "I saw the balloon act about 10 years ago. It is extremely funny - not at all rude, just risque".


The Oddballs have performed their acts across the UK and around the world.


Television appearances include Eastenders, Taggart, Des O'Connor Show, Big Breakfast, OTT, The Salon, Sextasy, Trisha, Vanessa, The Broker's Man and many more.


They have also appeared theatres in the London's West End and across the country touring with Jim Davidson with the adult pantomimes Sinderella and Sinderella Comes Again.

ODDBALL - Esolang (429 words)
ODDBALL, possibly an acronym for One Dimensional Deterministic Bully Automaton Layout Language, was created some time in the early 2000's by Tristan Parker for some reason or another.
Its roots can be traced back to Lisp and ALPACA, though why anyone would do that is beyond me. In 2005, ODDBALL was released into the public domain, not through any sense of community enrichment, but out of sheer laziness.
Like Thue, ODDBALL is a matrioshka language; each program has an Imperative section and a Declarative section.
