Lee Evans@Birmingham NIA

Oct 11 2008 By Anuji Varma

THIS cheeky chap certainly raised a chuckle out of me, but he didn’t have me LOLing (Laughing Out Loud for those of you out there who don’t text or e-mail) the night away when he performed in Birmingham this week.

The pint-sized comic’s set started off well – with a video clip of him ridiculing his perspiration problem by trying to avoid drowning in his sweat.

But that was probably the most memorable joke.

It seems that Lee has probably been so busy focusing on his film career that he’s forgotten how to write more than one very good joke.

For those of you who missed the show, you can see Lee in action in a DVD of the tour which is out on November 24.
