Lee Hurst

When Emmy arrives early for a birthday dinner, she is lured into taking part in a lavish ritual one last time.

Lee Hurst, star of They Think It's All Over. hits Her Majesty's Theatre in London for evening of stand-up comedy. Hurst has the crowd rolling with priceless bits such as the segment on football hooligans as well as the inimitable question and answer session he engages in with the audience. Topped off with a series of anecdotes about parts of They Think It's All Over that he and the rest of the cast blew, Lee Hurst Live is an enormously entertaining evening of comedy.

Alexei Sayle's Merry-Go-Round was a comedy sketch show which ran on BBC2 for a total of 6 episodes over one series in 1998. Alexei Sayle's final series was almost identical in format to The All New Alexei Sayle Show except with yet another change of writers.. Unusually, there was no studio audience. Sketches included the talents of Noel Fielding, Lee Hurst, Paul Putner, Gemma Rigg, Reece Shearsmith, Jessica Stevenson, David Walliams and Peter Serafinowicz The continuing adventures of Bobby Chariot were chronicled. Now free from any obligation to be Alexei's warm-up man, he traversed a series of other career cul-de-sacs under the appalling management of the repulsive "Edna" Denise Coffey. In one episode, the joke was turned on its head as Chariot performed for an audience of students, who enjoyed his act ironically and responded to his catchphrase "How ya diddling?" with an enthusiastic reply of "We're diddling fine!". Meanwhile Alexei Sayle himself was depicted as living in a Teletubbies-style burrow somewhere in the posh part of North London.
