Award-winning comedian, actor/screenwriter and presenter Simon Amstell presents a very special performance of his stand up show, Numb, which he has toured round the UK and taken to New York.

Recorded at TV Centre, it's a stripped-down, intimate performance, with no set and minimal lighting, described as "a painfully funny exploration of Simon's inability to connect with people, including family and lovers."
