The All New Alexei Sayle Show 2 - BBC 1995 - Anarchic Comedy Insights From The Scouse Sartre.

Always surprising & never boring, if you think you don't like Alexei Sayle, you probably haven't watched him - so give him try!
His 'Stuff' series seems widely available, but not this, so here's a chance to see him, I think in very good form.
Enjoy!

[@andrewbutcher3391]

I’ve just listened to another episode of Alexei’s Imaginary Sandwich Shop….Your still the man Alexei! Your TV shows were genius.

[@LeonTrimble]

@@andrewbutcher3391 love it. Even funnier now.

[@daleksupreme2913]

If I had my life to live over again, I'd definately watch this episode again

[@InParticularNobody]

After I'd smelled the flowers and killed the BeeGees.

[@MightyJonE]

8:12 In a 1990s comedy show, Peter Capaldi playing a time traveller

[@Foul_Quince]

Yes. Tom Baker shot to fame playing Rasputin, so it's a nice six degrees of separation reference....

[@yorkshirepudding6980]

I often feel he was seriously underrated. A comedic genius with a great way with the English language . His books are good too. Wish he would return on the comedy circuit

[@Solaar_Punk]

He did a tour a couple of years ago. The guy's like 70 now so can't expect him to keep touring

[@yorkshirepudding6980]

@@Solaar_Punk yes sadly I forget how old people now are , including myself !

It's all so true. 😥

[@Browncoat2417]

Have loved Alexei Sayle since I used to stay up late to watch the reruns of The Young ones on MTV when I was 13

[@StolenEyesX]

Stroke of genius to have an uncredited Shane Rimmer voice one of the puppet pilots, being as he provided the voice of Scott Tracy in Gerry Anderson’s Thunderbirds. 😊

[@peterbamforth6453]

And Blakey from on the buses What a cast.

[@michaellavery4899]

When?

[@thebagelsproductions]

I noticed Jenny Aguter, Peter Capaldi and Jim Carter!

Made me laugh out loud - today, and it's 2021.

Funny, is funny, doesn't matter when 😁.

[@FuckFeminists]

How, the HELL, is this the first time Ive watched this?? Its classic English comedy... wow, in the 21st century I cant find anything I like, and Im still digging up things that are great from the 90s!!! Thanks for faxing this video, I shall keep it right next to my sextant.

[@Chillmax]

+Stan Dando Glad you enjoyed it. As you say 'English', I'm presuming you're not from the UK, so here are some more recommendations of vintage comedy you might not know, some of which are on YT. Victoria Wood (sadly lost just this week), French & Saunders, Fry & Laurie, Hi De Hi, Waiting For God, Some Mothers Do Ave Em, Girls On Top, Kenny Everett, Yes Minister & Alan Partridge, I think that's enough to get you started ;-)

[@hanbaal]

There isnt anything like the alexi sayle show im afraid, nothing that fantastic but have you seen these? Father ted. The comic book presents. Bottom. Dangerous brothers. Let them eat cake. Ripping yarns. Jabberwocky. Some are from the 80's, I think they were uploaded to you tube by telegram or semaphore.

[@BillyJango]

+hanbaal What about The Young Ones???? Tell him about The Young Ones.

[@robinw77]

That's a good list! Although it's The Comic STRIP Presents

[@BrianFeral1]

Check out Absolutely, Chewing the Fat, Burniston, Limmys show, Still Game.

[@jaydee4697]

Capaldi as the Doctor could have Alexei as his new companion after Clara leaves. If they're this good at travelling in time, then they need to work together on Doctor Who. And can you imagine how funny Doctor Who could be with Sayle on board?

[@stillben]

The prop department nailed the paparazzi camera exactly

[@Chillmax]

In the good ol' days when there was a 'proper' props dept. ;-)

[@karlb2620]

I saw Alexei doing stand up at Lancaster University many many years ago, he was brilliant and the way he dealt with a heckler was amazing. I have lots of respect for him, a true knowledgeable talented man, amazingly funny.

[@tomfletchervideos]

My all time time favourite episode from the All New series! I have both series on VHS recorded from TV, hopefully i'll dig them out one day.

[@puma55792]

Ahead of its time.😄

[@Chillmax]

I understand you're being complimentary, but it wasn't ahead of its time, it was perfectly reflective of 80' & 90's alternative UK comedy. Comedy has unfortunately devolved since then, mainly due to offense culture, so anything pre 2000 is the zenith of comedy, today's comedy is just a joke.
