Alexei Sayle is one of the pioneers of stand-up comedy as we know it. The first ever MC of The London Comedy Store, he went on to star in various popular TV shows (such as The Young Ones) and has written five novels and two collections of short stories. Alexei Sayle was born in Liverpool on the day egg rationing came to an end. He always knew his parents were different. They ate salad, only read the Soviet Weekly, travelled to seaside towns to attend union conferences, and to Czechoslavakia determined to see Communism in action.
