It might not turn up as often as we’d like – this is only the fourth series in seven years, and the last run was back in 2014 – but it’s always good to see Stewart Lee’s Comedy Vehicle back on the road.
It seems the cult stand-up hasn’t been slacking off during his years away either, as this new run sees him airing new material on some very thought-provoking (and potentially controversial) themes, including patriotism, Islamophobia, the migrant crisis, death, and childhood memories.
However, he begins by sharing his thoughts on wealth in front of a live audience at the Mildmay Club in Stoke Newington.
Script editor Chris Morris, who as the creator of Brass Eye is no stranger to provocative comedy, reprises his role as the ‘hostile interrogator’, quizzing Lee on his attitude to stand-up.
