Richard Herring’s Leicester Square Theatre Podcast - with Alexei Sayle #38

[@mattzwick4993]

What a great guy. Love his 80's TV work and all his books. Thanks for posting this.

[@abegarfield3754]

Darth Hitler, His books are sureal masterpieces.

[@jayscollops]

always great to see my great uncle Alexei doing well

[@paulconnelly4050]

That blue light reflecting off Alexei's head looks proper sci fi.

[@diskochimp]

Excellent interview, thank you Richard.

[@BritishComedyUK69]

Alexei Sayle was hilarious on The Young Ones x

[@1emmajones]

Watch merry go round

Lex is a comedy godfather.

[@ladybeard99]

Love the podcasts. Still hoping for Peter Baynham to make an appearance!!

[@edmund184]

I see Richard Herring hasn't grown up since those distant days at the BBC

[@Herring1967]

you say that like it's a bad thing

[@IsntAliceOriginal]

Noel fielding would be a good guest

[@sratus]

nah he can fuck right off

[@cheekygeeks6662]

He'd be dull as dishwater.

[@marcusbarlow1346]

should get Richard ayoade on this year

[@Herring1967]

+Marcus Barlow trying

[@qwertyuiopdan1]

+Richard Herring Out of interest have you ever tried to get Daniel Kitson? I'd be really intrigued to hear him on here!

[@Herring1967]

+qwertyuiopdan1 yes many times. He is resolutely opposed

[@qwertyuiopdan1]

Haha! No surprise. Love all your content and really enjoyed Happy Now? Cheers

@@Herring1967 Richard, I know this is 6 years old, but your best interviews are ones where the person you're interviewing relaxes, is not in character the whole time and there is no competition with you with trying to be the funniest. Then we find out the real them. Ayoade always strikes me as someone who's always in character and it's kind of wearing.

[@garyrigby21]

Was Jerry Sadowitz ever on the Comedy store

[@samuelgarrod8327]

It's none of your fucking business. 😉

[@garyrigby21]

@@samuelgarrod8327 bit harsh

[@Doc_Filth]

He's wrong about the Daleks. They haven't used any of the original series operators in the post-2005 show at all. And Revelation of the Daleks was 1985, not 87. Christ, I need a life.

[@danshaggy292]

Looking forward to Danny Baker (possibly my favourite RHLSTP RHLSTP) and Harry Shearer!

[@noeldc]

I like strangling budgies. (I'm what you'd call an animal lover.)

[@RIXRADvidz]

70 views, I'm the third 'like', it's nice to not have a life so you can get in on these early..... is that the Time Traveling Finger?...what did you stick it in, to get it infected?.....

[@MegaHaymaster]

It's called Terminal

[@leozam]

As much as I love Richard, this doesn’t stand comparison with Stew’s interview with Alexei from the same year. I dunno, maybe they just didn’t click. The deployment of emergency questions which largely failed is telling.

[@rayscard2477]

As much as I despise Richard, this doesn't stand comparison with my loathing of Stew

[@FUNKINETIK]

Yep Stew’s interview was really interesting, just watched it. Different I suppose for Richard because it was in front of an audience.

[@leozam]

@@FUNKINETIK Yeah, I suppose I should have taken that into account. Will re-watch both at some point anyway.

[@FUNKINETIK]

@@rayscard2477 Seems to me that Stewart Lee makes you feel vely angly. But don’t let yourself go hey. P E A C E : )

[@1emmajones]

His head though

[@docherty53]

maybe colin baker was the best doctor who.

[@LoneKharnivore]

andy docherty Davison's my favourite.

[@billallen2126]

incredibly funny, blue, glowy-headed, bastard.

[@gwasgray9309]

At times it looks like he's got a dent in his head.

[@Drummer1000George]

No powdering of the head? 8:25

[@katyyork934]

I love you, you are amazing, what is the rubbish people like now?
