Stewart Lee: What Would Judas Do? CD review - May 2009 Den Of Geek - May 8th, 2009

There are certain things that, as a society, we have enough of. Few people can say that when perusing the shelves of their local Waterstones bookshop they’re looking for further volumes of Jordan’s extensive range of autobiographies. I’m not suggesting that there’s anything wrong with the existing eighteen volumes. Quite the opposite. I think that…

Stewart Lee’s Comedy Vehicle - April 2009 Lookagain.me - April 9th, 2009

Stewart Lee returns to TV with this new show, and when he left – all of ten years ago – I mourned his passing. Together with Richard Herring he crafted two shows (Fist of Fun & TMWRNJ) which were full of life, joy, and intelligence. A favourite memory from the show involves a repeated joke…

Stewart Lee is a condescending snob - March 2009 Sunday Mercury - By Roz Laws - March 29th, 2009

I’VE always thought that people from Solihull (or Silhillians, as they pretentiously call themselves) were snobs. Now Stewart Lee proves it. The comic, who grew up in the town, decided to lay into fellow Midlander Adrian Chiles in his BBC2 Comedy Vehicle this week. He said of The One Show (watched by considerably more people…

So which do you find funnier? V.D. (contraction thereof) or ‘comedian’ (not) Stewart Lee? His TV shows are pathetic – even the invited audience are bored out of their minds. He is not unlike Brand and the slobbering, fawning Ross (OBE) – smug, overpaid, arrogant, apparently stupid and not remotely amusing or entertaining. I’d prefer…

Stewart Lee’s Comedy Vehicle - March 2009 GQ Magazine - By James Mullinger - March 24th, 2009

Comedy legend Stewart Lee’s first television programme in over ten years debuted last week to a not unrespectable one million viewers on BBC2. Fans of his were not disappointed – the show was simply a 25-minute stand-up routine intercut with a few brief sketches – and non-converts were questioning why they had not heard of…

TV Review: Stewart Lee’s Comedy Vehicle, - March 2009 TV Scoop - By mofgimmers - March 24th, 2009

Stewart Lee. It’s good to have you back. It’s good to have anyone like you back. Even though there’s no-one quite like you. But your ilk. Brave, confrontational, sharp, smart and dangerous. Comedians stuck on the box are, by and large, filled with a Family Friendly angle or, worse still, employ a ‘Let’s Make A…
