Stewart Lee may have come 41st in a poll of the top 100 comedians. Personally I think he was robbed. I love Stewart’s comedy despite not getting to see him as much as I would like. I am also a great fan of his written work especially his plays and am looking forward to seeing ‘Elizabeth and Raleigh: Late But Live’ this fringe.
Despite rushing in at the last moment in to a packed Stand One and having to stand well back towards the loos, after the hour I just couldn’t believe it was over. I was laughing so much I was almost glad I was standing so I could jump about laughing.
Stewart now sees himself, as middle aged with a wife and family, things that used to make him laugh enough to include in his set no longer appeal so much, but his inspiration is arising from different situations.
Development and change in comedic superstars may be a commendation but don’t change too much as we love you as you are.
