S1E4 How do you direct Chris Morris and Stewart Lee? With Michael Cumming

Location: Hampstead Heath

Hampstead, London

Guest: Michael Cumming

Michael Cumming talks about minds as bad as a bent hedge and working with Chris Morris, Stewart Lee, and many other comedy *stars*. Michael is a director and you'll find links to his various works below - like Brass Eye, Oxide Ghosts and King Rocker. Come and see me chat to Michael and Stew in Birmingham after the King Rocker screening on Jul 28. I might ask Michael if he'll direct my movie. Maybe.

Austen Tasseltine, Ted Maul and Moss Staples were sadly unavailable to contribute to this episode. Do enjoy with a pint of foaming nut brown ale.

Do review, subscribe and like. Namecheck as many trees as possible in your reviews and make them as surreal as possible because I WILL BE READING THEM OUT. I have a very nice prize to give out to the writer of the funniest review at the end of Season 1.
