Where to Watch Season 2

London
E2
LondonStewart Lee looks at why more and more people are thinking about moving out of London for a taste of life in the countryside and why, upon reflection, that might not be as idyllic as they thought.
Charity
E3
CharityCharity is the topic for Stewart Lee's unique brand of stand-up this week, during which he gives Adrian "Toby Jug" Chiles and Russell "Ninjas" Howard a thorough drubbing. Charity was also the topic of the first show in the series, but he was waylaid by different varieties of crisps so they've made him do it again.
Stand-Up
E4
Stand-UpStewart talks about stand-up comedy, adding variety by choosing to sit down and throwing in some guitar-driven songs as a result of his exposure to fellow comedian Tim Minchin, who in a surprising turn of events he actually likes.
Identity
E5
IdentityStewart looks at the notion of identity, how different nations define themselves and debunks the myth of one of Britain's greatest national heroes.
Democracy
E6
DemocracyIn this final show in the series, Stewart Lee gives a uniquely personal insight into the workings of government.
