shark_hatThat Lee chap's funny, isn't he?
As masterly dismissals of celebrity authors' (and Dan Brown's) writing as one could wish for (and an utterly outrageous and unfair attack on adults who read children's books. How dare he) and weeny sketchettes with Kevin Eldon and Simon Munnery in and and just wow yeah. Did he really spend five minutes on a hypnotically repetitive description of who "the rap singers" are and where you find them? He did, didn't he? And ended with a two-punch punchline, one at himself and one at the vapidity of modern rap? Amazing.
Also, the digital extra stuff! Fifteen minutes of him and Armando Iannucci out-deadpanning each other! (And Armando made Stew giggle by slagging off his (Stew's) book!) Joy from start to finish.
If you missed it, you should watch it. It was very very good.
