Stewart Lee: If You Prefer a Milder Comedian, Please Ask for One
TV's Frankie Boyle has actually declared that no-one over 40 should do stand-up, as the old comics shed their edge and their anger. Stewart Lee is 42 as well as Frankie's brutal Scottish words have actually made him question if it's worth continuing. Undaunted, the intensely frustrated comedian tries to win round the legendarily extreme Glasgow audience with a crowd-pleasing Mcintyre-style routine about coffeehouse, but is distracted by ratings of fictional pirates; he attempts to speak about every day center aged males's concerns, but is attracted into a forty min rant against Leading Gear and all it means; he tries to find some common ground with happy childhood years memories that he as well as the audience can share, but is instead eaten with loathing and misery as a result of a Magners' Cider marketing campaign.
