Alexei Sayle's Stuff - Series 1 (DVD)

Have liked this guy ever since 'the young ones' he has a great talent and a very funny outlook on life.some of the sketches are quite original.lost his way as a top comedian these days but we still have these dvds to remind us of when he was at the top of his profession

Stuff is an essential purchase for anyone who likes sketch comedy.Mr Sayle is both intellegent & very witty in his observational humour in all departments, especially socially.Very influential, underrated & at times side-splitting.Backed up by Angus Deayton,Morwenna Banks & among others the excellent,unsung, Tony Millan,the self confessed Fat B*****d delivers classic stuff including a door to door "salesman" who seems to specialise in cat boiling!The highlight,however,has to be the southsayer episode in which the mainman gives a genius take on sorcery & magic.Going back in time with great costumes & a whos who in the comedy world(then & now) the team take the mickey out of wizards,badly dubbed foreign B-movies,ancient dialect(check out when the chaps get a grilling from Im Alan Partridge "Lynne" on how they speak).This is a must for all the comedy lovers who were old & lucky enough to see it on t v when it was originally broadcast in late 1988 & all those new to this type of humour should look no further than "STUFF".
