Stewart Lee’s Comedy Vehicle, Series 4 - April 2016 Moody Comedy - April 21st, 2016

With every new series of Stewart Lee’s Comedy Vehicle, I find myself not wanting to watch for fear of those who may judge but then almost immediately concluding that I do not care. Yes, Lee is a spiteful comic, but he is also incredibly astute. One can’t help but admire his craft, even if you…

‘Stewart Lee’s Comedy Vehicle’: Daring You To Like It - April 2016 Hidden Remote - By L. Falcetti - April 9th, 2016

You probably won’t like Stewart Lee, which will mean he’s doing his job. That job, being a professional stand up comedian, which he celebrates when viewing it through a lens of improvisational jazz and performance art. Yet he’ll be simultaneously mocking and tearing it down as a stupid line of work, compared to prostitution that kills…

Episode 4 Preview - March 2016 Herts & Essex Observer - March 23rd, 2016

He’s discussed wealth. He’s dealt with Islamaphobia. He’s taken a wry look at patriotism. Along the way he has failed to hide his disappointment at losing the comedy Bafta to Graham Norton, and recalled the time a Muslim woman on the bus sat on a copy of the Watchtower. Now all that fades into insignificance…

Lemon sucks but Stew’s act stinks - March 2016 The Daily Star - By Garry Bushell - March 20th, 2016

YOU’D have to be as drunk as Phil Mitchell to find Celebrity Juice funny. It’s like a tenth rate Shooting Stars. People titter because Keith Lemon leers at breasts and says “milk, milk”. What are we, six? Ooh, he said fanny, he said poo… On his live show, Lemon got his first laughs with “Oh…
