Massive budget. The rest of us saw a guy standing up talking about books, but what was really happening was he was piloting a death star into the face of the moon in full HD. You’re totally right.

He might as well make shooty fingers at it and punctuate the pauses with "eyyyyyyyyy". Stewart Lee is, as ever, a comedy genius but the production on it though, is totally wrong for what it is. As a "Canned Carrott" style standup-and-audience style show, this would be god and win. As it is, it just seems like they're looking for ways to spend money on it.

It might have something to do with the fact that I am also a book snob. I’m not normally a fan of Stewart Lee on comedy panel shows but was plesantly surprised by this…
