If all comedians were jolly, cheeky chappies like Peter Kay that would be a poor state of affairs.

Im sure its just his stage persona anyway.

I applaud Stewart Lee cos he tries to do something different. Lord knows, no f**ker else out there bothers to.

Sure, not everything he does works but when it does he's damn good.

P.S. im not slagging Peter Kay off, I love the big fat bugger.

I'm going to see the big, fat bugger tonight, with 19,999 other people at the O2.

I can't wait to find out about his broken electrical appliances! £47.50 well spent!

Episode 4 was the funniest ep. of any TV show this year thus far. Yes it was.

Alan Moore demands his name be taken off Hollywood blockbuster adaptations of his work

Off the cheques too?

Stewart Lee interviewed Moore on the radio, interesting but far too reverential.

Let us know how it was Dan!

Here's all the Stew extra stuff, as it's never publicised and stupidly difficult to try and find anything on the BBC website: http://www.bbc.co.uk/comedy/show/b0112b65/stewart_lees_comedy_vehicle/

That's why he's funny.

Cheers.

Not brilliant tonight - not enough Armando for me - but despite relatively weaker stuff in the last two episodes it's still going to take something extraordinary to beat this as best comedy programme of the year. I might even vote now.

I only caught the end of this, but that post credit sequence about the memory stick was fantastic.

Exceptional. I agree with Badge.

Godot, if you like the memory stick thing, you'll probably like this trailer for the series: http://www.bbc.co.uk/comedy/clips/p00grlyl/stewart_lees_comedy_vehicle_social_stew/

I am far too much of a sycophant to get on his newsletter.

Thanks Dan, bit too long but I loved it in parts. Stewart Lee is definitely a man after my own heart - after all I did start a thread on here called: "Facebook - self-contained idiot bin?"

I went on iPlayer to watch this over the weekend to see that they were only offering the last episode, rather the entire series. F**king pricks. The one episode they let me watch was excellent.

I was going to say something about the stockiness and the suit but I realised I mentioned during series one and I can't really better it:

"There's something immensely lovable about a chubby 40+ year old man in tight, borrowed suit.

Shatner cool."

That 'Coventry' joke in the last show is at least 20 years old.

It turns up in a 7 Raymonds show they did at University which you can find somewhere here: http://www.fistoffun.net/downloads.htm

Just goes to show - the old ones are sometimes among the best.

He doesn't give a damn about attracting new fans, which is really refreshing.

I disagree, with all the old material, the Armando interviews mocking what turned some people off about him, and what seemed to me be a general attempt to makehim more accessible, likeable etc, it seemed to be aimed much more at people who weren't fans, it seemed like I'd heard 80% of it before, apart from the Armando stuff.

He's on This Week now. Bod help you all.

Well, soonish.
