4. Why Am I So Unfashionable?

Stand-Up SpecialsWhy in the Name of Pierre Novellie
Episode 4 of 4

Pleasingly tall comedian Pierre Novellie uses his unique style of erudite bafflement to focus on the deep and the shallow in a comedic answer to In Our Time.

In this episode, all about why he’s so unfashionable, Pierre discusses his sinister alter ego, the emoji versus the quill, the most stylish way to visit the off-licence and his uncanny ability to make trousers wet.

As Pierre says -

“I’m delighted to be given the chance to perform my own comedy on the BBC, the original source of my obsession with comedy as a child. It’s a chance to bring my stand up to a hypothetically grateful nation.”

Written and performed by Pierre Novellie and produced & directed by David Tyler (“Cabin Pressure”, “One Person Found This Helpful”, “Armando Iannucci’s Charm Offensive” etc)

A Pozzitive production for the BBC
