Article description: (description ) This attribute controls the content of the description and og:description elements. | BBC comedy show from the mid-1990s starring comedy double act Stewart Lee and Richard Herring. One of the last of an era of sketch shows presented in front of a studio audience that began with Monty Python's Flying Circus. Similar in style to a A Bit of Fry and Laurie and The Mary Whitehouse Experience, being quite intellectual and popular with students and 20-somethings. The main difference being that Lee and Herring were more self depricating, Genre Savvy, and played up their Generation X alter egos; Herring as the neurotic manchild and Lee being the aloof Morrissey lookalike who would "listen to music that nobody else would like just to show off". Other reccuring characters included 'Peter' (played and written by Peter Baynham, previously of The Day Today) a disgusting loser who provided "Lifestyle Tips", and Simon Quinlank (Kevin Eldon) an over-zealous hobbyist who has Nazi-esque enthusiasm for various bizarre hobbies ("Old Man Collecting"). |
