Alan sits down with comedian Stewart Lee, a man The Times called in 2018 ‘the best standup working today’!
They chat about how COVID-19 stopped Stewart’s latest tour and how he’ll tackle comedy once it’s back to some sort of normality, as well as how the pair both shared the same stage decades apart!
Alan and Stewart have met on a few occasions before, but this is the first time the two men, who admire each other greatly, have got together for a detailed, honest and exclusive chat!
