Reviews

DVD Description
"In 2007, Stewart Lee was voted the 41st best stand-up of all time in an official Channel 4 poll, apparently better than Lenny Bruce but not as good as Jim Davidson. But what real difference does this accolade make? His TV pilot has been cancelled, his mother still thinks the 1970s game show host Tom O’Connor is funnier than him, and he’s been booked to perform stand-up for a conference of insect scientists for no money, while dressed as an aphid. Lucky for us, the more frustrating Stewart’s life becomes, the funnier he gets.

Here’s Lee’s acclaimed show, 41st Best Stand-Up Ever, captured in extreme close-up at The Stand comedy club in Glasgow.

Product Description
A recording from Glasgow's Stand Up Club of Lee's hugely acclaimed 2007/8 show that cements his reputation as one of the most masterful stand ups in the world. Comprehensive extras include a 45 minute feature interview with Stewart conducted by Johnny Vegas and Stewart's perfromace at Pestival - 'the international Arts Pestival dedicated to raising awareness of the integral role insects play in the global ecosystem'. ''Lee proves himself, once again, to be the maestro'' The Guardian. ''A masterclass in comedy technique... if there are 40 other stand-ups more masterful than him, you will be hard pushed to think of who they might be'' The Scotsman.

4.0 out of 5 stars Very Good!, 31 Jul 2008
By E. V. Croft - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Excellent dvd from Stewart lee who deserves to be a much bigger star than many of his peers..

As previously mentioned there are a few bits missing from when he did the show live but theres still enough there to keep fans happy including some pretty good extras including an interview & the Pestival gig he performed.

Although i thought it was not as strong as his previous mainstream dvd with so little of his material available on Dvd its a very welcome addition.

5.0 out of 5 stars Funny, funny man, 16 Oct 2008
By James Moffatt (England) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Mr. Lee has been my favourite stand up ever since his first DVD release. I'm not going to give the set away, all I'm going to say is buy it if you like your humour witty, well constructed and with an original twist.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent, but..., 29 Jul 2008
I saw this show last year and really enjoyed it. This DVD is more or less exactly the same as the show I saw, but I was a bit disappointed that the "March of the Mallards" intro and "Delboy falling over and Trigg pulling a face" routine were missing which would have taken the gig to 90 minutes. In the extras, the interview with Johnny Vegas is really good - a 45 min serious discussion about the topics in the show - and the extract from his Pesticide gig was another nice extra.

Despite my mild disappointment (and Mallard routine is on youtube)this is a fantastic DVD and well worth adding to your comedy collection.
