Technically, no, however the tour did become the content of series 2 of his TV series, Comedy Vehicle.
Basically everything on the live tour ended up in this series. http://www.amazon.co.uk/Stewart-Lees-Comedy-Vehicle-Series/dp/B004WOQFPE/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1344140917&sr=8-1 So the content is there, although in a slightly different format. Enjoy!

So there hasn’t been a DVD of this show… which is a pity for all the Stewart Lee fans that are not in the UK.

Comment on The Labour government were intrusive, the Tories are taking it to new creepy levels. by Henry Asquish-Hughes

National Health Service the envy of the world?
I can only ask what world/planet are you on. With your Doctor Who comments I can only think you are not mentally living in this world.
The NHS is bloated and overfunded with too many managers and the level of service it provides is not up to standard. It was a great idea and was needed in 1944 when it was conceived as part of the Bevan report but is it the best way to care for sick people these days? I think not. How can you justify sex changes and IVF on the National Health? This isn’t illness or sickness at all.

Comment on Why does Cameron really want to shut down Twitter? by yetanotherdave

I have to disagree. I see people using twitter as a fantastic means of communication. News spread fast, and information is easily passed around. I see people uniting on issues and putting pressure on their MP’s.
World news gets to twitter long before any media outlet, news website or tv news. During the riots it provided local news about everywhere outside of London that simply wasn’t being talked about on TV. I think it’s fantastic.
On the other hand, local councillors are the most faceless, unaccountable group in existence, whose sole reach of change is approving planning permission and traffic “improvement” plans. No thanks.

Twitter is only used by people who have no social skills and cannot communicate with other people face to face. If you lot want to change things don’t sit on your lazy butts moaning about it, go out and make a change. Why don’t you stand for local council at the next elections.

Comment on Packed with the cream of British comedy talent. by yetanotherdave

I didn’t count How to lose friends and Run Fatboy as I didn’t think that Pegg had creative involvement with them, just an actor. Run Fatboy was the best of the bunch though.
Looks like I’ll be missing Paul as well then. Shame, as I thought he could really shine on something like that.
I liked Scott Pilgrim too, did the books justice very well. It does look like that’s where the talent lied.

I enjoyed parts of Burke and Hare – but as a fan of both John Landis movies AND Simon Pegg movies I felt the same disappointment as a paedophile who realised that he’d actually kidnapped an ugly dwarf…

Paul was no better – given the talent involved I was expecting an extended Spaced-eqsue romp through sci-fi movie references with the added weight of cameo roles. Instead it felt like the early sparks had fizzed out. I now wonder if the actual talent lies with Edgar Wright – loved his adaptation of Scott Pilgrim.

How To Lose Friends and Alienate People, Run Fatboy Run and others prove that it takes more than Pegg being an out-of-place British guy to be funny and the only film he’s involved with that I have ANY interest in at all is the Tintin movie, and that’s nothing to do with any actor’s involvement. I’d be excited if someone had cut out pictures from the original books and just held them up to the camera.
