Stewart Lee Returns
Season 7, Episode 4Stewart Lee was our first ever guest on Book Shambles and now he’s back in Season 7 as our first return guest. Unfortunately Josie was ill at the last minute so for this episode the role of Josie was played by Michael Legge. This was a long chat so we’ve split it into two parts.
In Part 1 Robin, Michael and Stew chat about Jarret Kobek, Alice Cooper and Mohave Ethnopsychiatry.
In Part 2 the three continue their conversation getting into the work of Rosemary Tonks, David Keenan, Dave Graney and Ithell Colquhoun. Also Stew doesn’t like Dunkirk and Michael’s annoyed on trains.
