T-SHIRTS

This t-shirt has increased in sentimental value with the demise of the "real" Rod Hull Proclaiming on the front that the wearer is indeed Rod Hull, the back verifies this status by confirming that the wearer lurves GREEN JELLY!!!
This is a t-shirt to tell the world that the wearer likes Fist of Fun. And rightly so. It then goes on to state the reason behind the t-shirt which is to line Rich and Stew's pockets with cash. It is the wearer's t-shirt after all, but it is actually Rich and Stew who will make lots of money.
A must for any Dibdin fans. You can wander along singing the traffic light song in the hope that the person walking behind you will read the words off your back and join along. Also serves the purpose of slagging off anyone who can't even drive yet. Stupid fools. It's a bit grey today.
A simple t-shirt with Rich and Stew's faces on the front looking a bit smug cos they know how much youhave paid for your t-shirt. Also proclaims the wearer's love of Fist of Fun to anyone unfortunate enough to be stuck behind him (or her).
With the map of the tour with the route taken and all land-marks worthy of note, this t-shirt is not so much to be worn but to be studied. In depth. A must for any fistette.

LEGAL DIFFICULTIES VIDEO

Released in 1995, this video finds Stewart Lee and Richard Herring riding on the wave of popularity occasioned to them by their hit BBC2 series Fist of Fun. In these pre-TMWNRJ days, Lee and Herring were the darlings of the BBC, and the favourites of the British press, who hailed them at the time as the next Baddiel and Skinner.

The video captures them performing live on stage in London, following their Fist of Fun tour. It contains material from their television series, but with more cursing. Highlight of the show is the individual stand up set from Stewart Lee, as he examines a postcard he picked up in London, and tries to decipher it's hidden meaning.

Peter Baynham appears, playing everyone's favourite Welshman from Balham, 32-year-old virgin Peter. Kevin Eldon also features, as self-proclaimed Lord Of All Hobbies Simon Quinlank, and also gives a notable performance as one of Jesus' many helpers.

BOOKS

Stewart Lee - "The Perfect Fool"
 Stew's novel landed on the Comedy Lounge doorstep back in May and since then neither of us have managed to stop making reference to it. It's one of those stories that gets stuck in your head and weeks afetr you have finished it you can still catch yourself thinking about the characters. We both fully intend to buy copies for all our friends and highly recommend this book to anyone who can read.

Originally a part of Lee's stand-up routine, A PERFECT FOOL follows the intertwining stories of several desperate characters, each bearing their own all-consuming obsession. Lee introduces depth and emotion to the plot, which skips between characters without losing momentum or energy, whilst drawing in the reader. This book is full of discoveries and insights, which combine to create a grim, penetrating yet funny novel that will make you sit back and think.

A superb debut from a very talented writer and comedian. One to read slowly with a thoughtful expression.

Lee And Herring - "Fist Of Fun"
 We like Fist of Fun. We like it so much we bought the book. One each. Originally released following the first series of Fist of Fun, this book is packed to the brim with sketch ideas, cartoon fun and more pictures of Rich and Stew than anyone could ever possibly need. Unlike most television spin-off books this is full of original material, a lot of which had not been broadcast at the time of publication. Even today, if you can find a copy, it is certainly worth a look. A good way of passing the time on long, dark nights when you are supposed to be doing something else is to go through Stew's passport photos trying to find all the famous people therein.
