Stewart Lee - 41st Best Stand-Up Ever! (1x3)

Data emisji: Lip 28, 2008

In 2007, Stewart Lee was voted the 41st best stand-up of all time in an official Channel 4 poll, apparently better than Lenny Bruce but not as good as Jim Davidson. But what real difference does this accolade make? His TV pilot has been cancelled, his mother still thinks the 1970s game show host Tom O’Connor is funnier than him, and he’s been booked to perform stand-up for a conference of insect scientists for no money, while dressed as an aphid. Lucky for us, the more frustrating Stewart’s life becomes, the funnier he gets. Here’s Lee’s acclaimed show, 41st Best Stand-Up Ever, captured in extreme close-up at The Stand comedy club in Glasgow.
