saw him on the cak! tour in Manchester & nicked a huge poster advertising the tour so had a massive alexei face in me front room for some time. he was fierce. went to interview him several years later, still fierce. his autobiogs are excellent.
In 1991 my linguistics class had to do a project on Language and Humour, and my subgroup decided to do a section on swearing in comedy. We chose our favourite examples of swearing used to raise laughs in comedy, including the Young Ones, Viz, Attila the Stockbroker and... "Say Hello Mr Sweary" from my cassette copy of the Cak! album. :) Fond memories... when we did our presentation to the lecturers I got a bit scared and cut Alexei off after 10 or 15 seconds. I've always wished I had just let it run for the whole couple of minutes.
All most 40 years ago.And still fresh .
That Mr Sweary routine lived on in my memory and I thought I'd never see it again. Brilliant!
