Name by Stuart Lee in the top 10 comedians of all time!
“Fast establishing himself as one of the most distinctive, and funniest, new comedians in Britain.” – Chortle
“Stewart Lee is one of the funniest men on the planet, and it was no surprise to see him prove it for the umpteenth time on Tuesday night. What did come as a shock, however, was to see his support act – the hitherto unknown Scot Stephen Carlin – come within a cat’s whisker of upstaging him.” – The Scotsman
