This isn't acceptable for a Stewart Lee comment section. 'Whose funny'..........whose funny what? The contraction of 'who is' is who's. I suspect you're not even a member of the metropolitan liberal elite or own an avocado called Brian. And yes. I was at that gig.
Oh, The Fonz from happy days has let himself go. Oh, Ricky Chavez has let himself go. Oh, the Queen's let herself go. Oh, Margret Thatcher's let herself go. Oh, the purple Teletubby's let, itself go.
We need Stewart Lee in the U.S. to satirize our culture and politics. On second thought, who in the U.S. would understand him? He's so brilliant he transcends the genre of stand-up. Riotously funny and bitingly true.
I remember the day the Queen died. We went into Sainsbury's & all the self checkout machines had their screens done out with profiles of the Queen like a row of giant postage stamps from when she was young & pretty & they didn't seem to work, until I realised the "beep" had been turned off as a "Sign Of Respect!" Its what she would have wanted - like she ever knew what a "self service" checkout ever was ,or existed at all!
@@YortOK Yeah but she only went shopping in a corner shop near Sandringham that had been run by descendants of Ethelred the Unready. Otherwise she lived on packages brought in Fortnum & Mason by guards in Busbies.
Stewie is indeed a comedy genius in his own time and space - indeed before his time. I was on the same bill as him in a comedy/music club back in the 80s where he got the ‘hook’ because the organiser’s wife thought he was disrespectful to the audience. Tbh, I wasn’t really listening or watching cos I was too nervous about my own performance so when I was pushed on stage before I was due to be, I was somewhat taken aback. I have only belatedly been able to appreciate his comedy genius. Looking forward to watching this show !
Is there a direct line back to forelock tugging , lickspittle serfs, desperate to find favour with their lords and masters? The kind that would report a starving family who had poached a deer? I wonder.....
I was there! It wasn't a marmalade sandwich, it was a life-sized inflatable doll of 'ALF'! Ha... I am clever because I have sycophantically adored Stewart Lee since 'Fist of Fun', I buy tickets to his shows and don't go, just to keep him happy.
I'm a more recent convert but I have been going through the back catalogue. I was sorely disappointed to discover that Fists of Fun wasn't about fisting.
I find it refreshing that fans are having more diverse and complex comments to share and not so much focus on appearance. Because I actually think Freddie Star has pulled himself together a bit.
My uncle David, (you don’t know him, but if you did, you’d like him. He’s been an inspiration to me over the years and we share a wonderful rich sense of humour together. Almost to the point where we often feel superior to most, if not all the people in our company.)Well he’s let himself go.
When he's on form - and that's not always TBH - he's still the best.....( tried to get the obligatory "let himself go" remark in there but I couldn't think of anything )
You have to question whether what Lee is doing is even comedy, or some higher art form. He's a genius and so am I because I like him.
There is no higher art form than comedy.
Also liking stewart lee means you're better than other people.
I wish I was that smart. I'm only here to see how Showaddywaddy are doing

He's a genius
Bit off colour really 😢
Aye they are
Can't wait to watch this in full - he's on another level. Amazing. Really appreciate his work. Top drawer.
I watched him after Lockdown, was brilliant. Even my Mrs who doesn't like him enjoyed the show.
Nice to see Stewart doing some more chair-based activity.
That look behind the stage, " I think we got away with that " lol
I love that look. When I'm eventually chair-based I'll watch that bit on a loop.
Start the car...
Always a relief to watch a comedian whose funny

That placement of the simple word "other" was chefs kiss. Perfection.
Yes, I too understood that joke. Because I, like other Stewart Lee fans, am a genius.

I was watching the Big Bang Theory rerun on E4. A message appeared to 'turn to the news', but I couldn't be bothered.
Well she did actually. She often attended the openings of places and was shown new technology.
@@YortOK Yeah but she only went shopping in a corner shop near Sandringham that had been run by descendants of Ethelred the Unready. Otherwise she lived on packages brought in Fortnum & Mason by guards in Busbies.

Just watched this at 2 times the speed and @ 2:17 Stewart Lee is transformed into Freddy Starr!! Its remarkable!

What’s General Ratko Mladic doing on a stage in Salford?
Letting himself gp
Is that some kind of eskimo from the 90s?
@@Scripture-Manin a sense, yes
Serbia strong
Ratko Mladic was definitely the Stewart Lee of Serbian war criminals.
This is so incredibly good. 😂😂😂
There is no better use of my time than watching Stewart Lee. Maybe I should try a little harder. But, so far, yes, it's true.
Stewart Lee is the marmite of standup company, but "Basic Lee" was one of his very best. (if not his best routine)
Spot on about monarchists. Andrew could have had 300 children in his basement and they'd still defend him.
Is there a direct line back to forelock tugging , lickspittle serfs, desperate to find favour with their lords and masters? The kind that would report a starving family who had poached a deer? I wonder.....
No.
