Alexei Sayle is a man who was there from the beginning of alternative comedy. Hosting the Comedy Store in Soho, London and creating a few of his own characters on the way. Welcome to the intimidation that is Alexei Sayle. He’s not only been one of the finest stand up comedians from our time zone, but he has also had hit records, starred in many movies and he’s been an international football hero (well that last one may be a bit of a porky). Here is Alexie singing his heart out on one of his many songs “Ullo John Got A New Motor?”
Watch “Hello John Got A New Motor?” video:
Alexei Sayle doesn’t do stand up comedy anymore. He writes and acts – and a fine actor and writer he is, too. He’s had many TV shows over the past 20 years. You could say his humor is in the area that Spike Milligan used to vacate. Very physical in his deliverance, he is the guy that you hope doesn’t pick on you while waiting at the chip shop.
