      Who is the real sick man in this so called society? Is it the man, who innocently owns an inflatable alien doll, to pleasure himself as he watches the man across the street empty his bins and then takes the filled alien to the memorial site of one of Britain's most beloved royal members, or, is it the businessman in his suit and tie, drinking coffee and reading a magazine?

    The way he delivered the line "I'd better go and get a life-size model of ET then" always think it could have been funnier if he'd continued the somber and quiet delivery, and dragged that scene out, perhaps even extending it for longer.

    Fun fact: Stewart Lee is my closest friend, someone who has helped me on many occasions through some very dark episodes. One day I hope to meet him so I can tell him. He wouldn't like me though, but that wouldn't matter... nobody likes me anyway. Perhaps he would at first think me merely another fawning sycophant from the West Midlands... but its more than that, I am not just a fan, because I honesty feel that my missing hair has been living vicariously through Stewart Lee for the last eleven years.

      We had those guys come to my school around 1994. Some guy talking about how much he loves Jesus and that he doesn't steal cars anymore. My teacher was standing behind a column trying to hide as he pissed himself laughing, leaving us to get in a bit of trouble as we were in plain sight. He marched us outside where we all then laughed hysterically. I suppose the intention wasn't awful, but we were not the kind of kids on the cusp of a life of crime or of religious conviction.

    I am not ashamed to admit that I, together with my wife and daughter placed the ET toy as a tribute to our Queen of Hearts. We bought flowers to place by the gate and my daughter, Emily said she wished to give her favourite toy. This, at the time was her most loved possession. It sat at the end of her bed and gave solace when she had bad dreams. To her, the gift of her protector was as heartfelt as any bouquet.
    To see Stuart Lee ridicule a child's gift, makes my heart weep. If you were a decent human being, you would hang your sorry head in shame.
