It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, it was the season of Light, it was the season of Darkness, it was the spring of hope, it was the winter of despair, we had everything before us, we had nothing before us, we were all going to Heaven, we were all going direct the other way in short, the period was so far like the present period, that some of its noisiest authorities insisted on its being received, for good or for evil, in the superlative degree of comparison only.

The date was January 2007; the time of the Celebrity Big Brother scandal, when a pair of halfwits launched a racist attack on a fellow housemate, attracting headlines all around the world, and promptly spawning well in excess of 44,000 complaints from the public to Ofcom alone. Amongst the gushing torrent of verbiage and platitudes, many of them approaching the original tirade in terms of the force of unwarranted rhetoric and hyperbole present, the scandal brought forth this press statement from the shows sponsors, the Carphone Warehouse. Racismis entirely at odds with the values of the Carphone Warehouse. Now, if the almost parodic use of the word values doesnt sound quite right in your mind, then you would do well to seek out the comedian Stewart Lee. If the statement seems unintentionally amusing to you, chances are that you already have.
Stewart Lee is a comic who takes a playful delight in irreverance, but theres much more to him than just that. Lee believes it is his job to challenge both the lionisation of cultural mediocrity and the transparency of the dishonest hypocrisy that defines our celebrity obsessed time. Unusually, rather than stating
the particular advantages of him in particular pointing out the plainly ridiculous, Lee realises it is part of the general futility of being a cult comedian. He was recently quoted as saying, Im an overweight, greying, middle-aged man in a suit that obviously needs letting out. I dont have any power, so there wouldnt be any skill in crushing me. In essence, any comic is a bauble. Shiny and decorative, but pointless. Think of the trends that define the nations comic sensibilities. Peter Kay was behind the surreal and superb Phoenix Nights, but also behind the poorly received Britains Got The Pop Factor, and Possibly a New Soapstar Superstar Strictly on Ice (and do not be fooled by the verbose title; it isnt funny). Similarly, flavour of the moment Michael Macintyre has been working for years, yet has only achieved truly breakthrough fame relatively recently. If it is not only a fickle role, being a comedian is also in essence trivial. Lee knows this, and for all his passionate pathos, his work will, like all comedy, carry a trace of futility about it.
Like Camus The Outsider, it is this sense of belonging that makes Lee particularly compelling. A supporter of humanism and
democratic socialism, among other things, Lee is brilliant at tapping into the sense of futility in the face of widely supported but abhorrent cultural institutions. The genius of Lee is in the detail, and his ability to tap into a common counter-cultural consciousness is perhaps unmatched among any other comic. In his recent programme Stewart Lees Comedy Vehicle, his first show on mainstream TV in almost a decade, Lee mocked subjects such as celebrity hardbacks, the recession and rubbish TV that saturates channels such as E4. Watching Channel 4 is like a flood of sewage coming unbidden into your own home, whereas E4 is like youve constructed a sluice to let it in. Ironically mocking Channel 4 (which had Lee on its schedule at one stage), was certainly not a lone foray against those whove frustrated him first hand. One of Lees own books, The Perfect Fool, attracted excellent critical reviews but did not sell huge amounts (as Lee says in his DVD 41st Best Stand Up Ever, youre just not getting the figures son), and in a similar vein Lee notes the irony of a book appearing such as The Gospel According To Chris Moyles a man who, Lee notes, having published now two volumes of his autobiography, has written more than
hes read. You have probably realised by now, capturing
the essence of a comic, especially one who specialises in something as broad as counter-culture, is particularly difficult. It is, however, worth trying, if only to draw some attention to an especially interesting comic who seems to be just slipping back into popular consciousness after a long hiatus after his controversial role as a writer of Jerry Springer: the Opera. Long live Stewart Lee!
This week, George Gilbert explores the work of comedian Stewart Lee, a cult figure with a particular appeal for those who like their comics a little more dark and subversive.

LIVE...AND KICKING THEMSELVEStelevision10 20oct09issue233
Remember when TV meant perfectly staged lines, comedy-on-cue and not a hair out of place? When presenters behaved with dignity and poise? Nope, no-one else does either, not since live TV arrived on our screens. And one of This Morning on ITV. Phil and Fern are legendary for being unable to keep straight faces, and into giggles like naughty schoolchildren.
Example: This Morning were covering the types of biscuits viewers like to dunk in their tea. Phil reveals to everyones shock that he does not like dunking biscuits. However, when they talk roast beef later on, ignoring her mind, Fern calmly notes, You dont mind dunking a bit of beef, then, do you? Immature giggling breaks out and not even the sternest of schoolmasters could shame them in to silence.
But if they were having so many laughs &ZWFeminism and pride take hits there, as did ITV & with the slightly staler Holly Willoughby.
Phil and Fern as a team are sorely missed but their entry to the live TV hall of fame is assured for all the wrong reasons, and some of the right ones.

The EventdsDerren Brown loses five thousand pounds of an unwitting participants money on the spin of a roulette wheel, Anton Du-Beke jokingly uses an incredibly volatile racial slur against partner Laila Rouass in an otherwise genteel middle-class dancing competition and Dannii Minogue proves how well versed she is in red-tops by witlessly questioning contestant Danyl Johnsons sexuality instead
of commenting on his singing.But rather than this being the inevitable
implosion of reality TV sociologists worldwide have been praying to the god of humanism for, these are really just coinciding examples of a tradition of live TV blundering that goes back decades. From 1969 childrens television to this years MTV Music Video Awards, from intellectual game shows to biscuit dunking
chat shows, theyve always been at it and whether its the celebrities conspiring to bring down television (if not society as a whole) or just an industry agreement to keep Denis Norden in work, the one thing thats for certain is that its nothing new. The Event opens up the vaults of TVs Finest Live Fumbles to prove it.
You dont get to be one of the longest running game shows in the world without having a few mishaps and Countdown fair share over the years.

However, while in the past contestants themselves would choose swear-words to play the game, they were quickly cut from the broadcast completely in 2008. The word wankers was merely bleeped out.
What is clear is that, despite the producers Countdown that another hilarious mishap will somehow our laptops.
