Welcome to another episode of A History Of Comedy In Several Objects with Oliver Double and Elspeth Millar. In this episode, we delve back into the depths of the British Stand-Up Comedy Archive to analyse an 'Alternative Cabaret' flyer. There is discussion of the style of the flyer, the context to the content and what comedy was like in the wave of alternative comedy. On top of this, we have a rare and exclusive clip of Alexei Sayle giving his commentary on the design of the flyer. Enjoy the episode.
