Britain has been blessed with many GREAT comedians but for me Lee Evan’s is at the absolute top of that tree. The man tells amazing observational comedy but the timing, mic work and acting that goes with it puts him in his own category.

I distinctly remember it being Lee Evans that started my love borderline obsession with stand up comedy. Live in Scotland was on paramount comedy late one night which I put on randomly and I belly laughed so much to the point that and I nearly vomited & I woke people up upstairs.

Lee Evans is one of the funniest comedians Britain has!! He was good in films too; look for Something About Mary, Fifth Element, and my 2 favourites Mouse Hunt and Freezeframe (this one was a real step down from his quick-fire wit; he played a man falsly accused of murder, this film is so gripping! Its like Robin Williams in the film One Hour Photo - SO different to how we know and love his work!)

I was lucky to see Lee live twice - both were small warm up shows, like a test run to see how the audiences reacted to his new work. They were in a very small venue (local church converted to a theatre) and it felt like being in someones living room. Being a wheelchair user I was in the front row and Lee was just a few feet away. I would love for him to come out of retirement but can understand he loves time with his family. Such a sweet and exceedingly intelligent/funny man. Has me in tears everytime I see him 🤣

Lee Evans was an all time favourite of mine, I've seen him live 3x and I swear, its way harder watching live than watching on TV, you are still processing the last joke before he's onto to his third I highly recommend watching some of his earlier stuff, some of his first 3 shows. He's visibly nervous and he's said in interviews he used his nerves to act daft & strange, and use random material. Some of the random acts he does are just insane. 1994 - Live at Her Majesty's Theatre 1995 - Live From The West End 1996 - Live - Different Planet Tour (My Personal Favourite) 1998 - Live in Scotland 96' has random and bizarre acts throughout, slapstick comedy. Lee Evan's British legend

I was lucky enough to go to the Glee Club in Birmingham (UK) for a colleague's birthday back in the early millennium and like most of these nights it's pot-luck who you get - though the quality is always worth it. This night we struck gold as Lee had arranged for a small audience (this guy was filling stadiums) to try out new material. There were no more than 50 of us and we had the best time in years, material that didn''t work he threw the prompt card (yes, he was using cards) into the audience. He'd signed each one and put Lee's Little Get-together on the back. Just brilliant. Si.

The first thing i ever saw Lee Evans in here in America was There's Something About Mary, which I highly recommend if you haven't seen it. Great romantic comedy. He was an absolute scene stealer every single time. A little time passes and I see him here and there in movies, and then I found out by accident around 2013 that he was a stand up comedy legend in the UK. I was floored. And i've been hooked on his stuff ever since, especially his music. A one of a kind, unique, multi talented individual. Broke my heart when he retired. It's great that he chose to spend more time with his wife but I often find myself selfishly hoping he will come back someday.
