You're looking at a very special DVD that very nearly didn't happen.
Stewart Lee's tour de force, 90s Comedian, has been dubbed so controversial (along with his directing debut Jerry Springer – the Opera) that none of the big DVD manufacturers would touch it with a barge pole.
Which is a shame, and is why the fearless Go Faster Stripe stepped in and offered to organise a special one-off evening's performance to capture this man's unmitigated comedic genius and preserve it on DVD for posterity.
Although it looks suspicious, this is none of your bootleg crap – it's all proper with special features like an interviewette, extra special cut-out bits, a photo gallery – oh, and a script for a Joe Pasquale joke.
