This one is absolutely brilliant all the way through

[@venners77]

This contains my fifteen seconds of fame - I'm the dude who shouts "Go on Stew". (6:55) I like to think that this one-off quasi-heckle immediately cements me in position as a greater contributor to the arts than, say, Dan Brown.

[@chrisdavis9056]

Chris Venables I've heard that you were miming, and that too was Jon Culshaw?

[@alancarroll9224]

Iannucci almost broke at 4:00, “a chorus of speaking fruit”

[@urbanbushing]

Two of the funniest people in the world together. What's better than that?

[@hitlermugabetashtwin]

I agree pastman.

"Stewart Lee's Involuntary Euthanasia Dance Calculator"

[@davidfox1983]

Something about the name "Roy Sink" cracks me up.

[@Tedaus5]

This has got to be the most post modern thing I've ever seen

[@berbatov3890]

"How do you respond to accusations that you were miming?"

[@terencef97]

Throwing shit against a wall with Stewart Lee is definitely more watchable than The Masked Singer

[@topstep]

"Throwing shit against a wall... with Stewart Lee."

[@GlintzKollide]

I think the country is ready for Stewart Lee's Pineapple Ballads.

[@Astrojammer]

Love Stewart Lee

[@Kukashkin]

I am calling my rock-band "Face-Type Things" and our first album will be "Pinapples and Balance".

[@perlefisker]

Simply amazing! How do they do it? :-D

[@64kram]

Throwing Shit Against the Wall, with Stewart Lee.

[@sean2mush]

i like these

[@en0tjh]

me too, that's my fav bit. Can't believe it didn't raise a smile from Stu.

[@nicholasmorgan455]

reminded me of alan partridge

[@ivorbigonee]

Nicholas Morgan hmm. wonder why?

[@en0tjh]

I thought exactly the same.

[@Eddie4518]

yea real hillarious

[@normalizedinsanity4873]

pineapple ballads, hilarious

[@luke-alex]

100% pearS

[@paulwise7206]

best bit of Derek and Clive I've seen since my mums song, keep it real people, my mums song is available on VHS, youtube, netflix and any venue you are currently in watching this nonsense in, I don't have a television because the BBC are full of...

[@matetotally]

Are you just trying to get into his compendium of irrational excessive abuse?

[@luke-alex]

"All different kids, from all different cultural backgrounds, all having fun together pretending to be an exclusively white audience."

[@captaincluster316]

Nowadays they'd insist on a few coconuts amongst the grapefruits and oranges.

[@spillett7475]

"Go on Stew!" "Yeah, that's like a heckle but it's patronising"

[@jasonfeingold2314]

Their best "interview".

[@TheConciseStatement]

Throwing Shit Against The Wall with Stewart Lee is obviously his pitch to BBC Three.

[@ts5758]

brilliant. I like to think all Lee's answers are improvised. With this in mind you might assume that the programme titles at the end are imagined by iannucci therefore making 'random collition of words..like throwing shit against a wall', a slight friendly stab at iannucci's writting making his 'with stewart Lee' retort even more hillarious. Genius.

[@grigoriygorchitsa8253]

What is thIS??? I thought i've seen all the comedy vehicles.

[@akf2000]

It was on the red button

[@Mintleton]

Brilliant

[@rmcc86]

KD Lang's let himself go.

[@bmkinuk]

Stewart Lee has been writing on his hand since his early years, and referring to the fact he has stuff pre-written on his hand is not a new gag for him.
