      I had no idea he was even a comedian. After seeing There's Something About Mary on tv I wondered what happened to him, I remember seeing him in a bunch of movies as a kid. I really don't think his comedy career is that well known outside of Britain

    • @anglewoden
      @anglewoden 3 года назад +4

      @@EF-zy3nr He is/was very well known inside the UK and I agree not so much outside the UK but then that doesn't make him any less of a stand up than people who are in fact we Brits are blessed to have known him. He was brilliant on stage, going by todays standards of comedian or comedienne there is very few that could hold there own when compared to him. His audience spanned both genders and all ages although he used to swear it was in context so it wasn't for effect like some do. He is/was much loved and missed. Shame he retired so early but he had reasons.

    I was in a film with him . Freeze Frame. Filmed in Crumlin Road Gaol in Belfast. I was an extra who got to kick him down a flight of stairs. He was an absolute gent. It was a bit scary when I was introduced to him. he had his head shaved and no eyebrows. Made me feel really at ease, as if I got the kick wrong, I could have broken his nose! I was hunched under a camera, trying to do a kick within a few inches of his nose. Did the scene with him and the stunt man. Great day and it was lovely to meet and work with him. Really great guy.

    I had the pleasure of meeting and chatting to Lee shortly before he made it really big in film. he lived about a mile from where I was, and one lunchtime we literally bumped into each other on Hamlet Court Road, Westcliff. I stopped to say sorry, as you do, and he turned around and looked back, and I of course was like, OMG its Lee Evans. He started to mimic me as if to say he was shocked to see me and went into his act on the street. I was in stitches. After we chatted for 5 minutes about his recent TV comedy show, and all the time locals came past and said hello, he knew them all. Most by name. He was so grounded, and I have never forgotten that few minutes in his presence. What Lee didnt say here, was a big part of not continuing his film roles, was his wife, who he loves endlessly, wanted to come back home. So he did. I am so happy after 21 years they are still together.

    Lee Evans is right, menapause is bloody awful and lasted me 10 years, sooooo glad it's over phew I can't recommend it though some women get it easier. What I don't miss is PMS and periods, OMFingG!!! When I remember them they can still make me cry, the sheer pain was excruciating. I used to say to my son at those times approach with extreme caution with a box of chocolates in one hand, flowers in the other lay them in front of me and back gently out of the room, do NOT turn around, just back out again and close the door! Nahhhh I'm well out of it all.

    Wow, he's so nervous. Just proves that when these guys get on stage, they are totally at home. Very strange.

      Sir Alec Guinness was so nervous, he used to throw up before every first night.
