Description:

Comedian Frankie Boyle has sparked controversy by suggesting that comedians over 40 lose their comedic spark. At 42, Stewart Lee finds Boyle's harsh words making him question his own career. Undeterred, Lee attempts to connect with a Glasgow audience with a relatable routine about everyday life, but becomes increasingly derailed by bizarre tangents – including an extended rant about the television show *Top Gear* and a surprising fixation on a Magners' Cider advertisement. He struggles to find common ground, instead becoming consumed by negativity and despair.
