Ben Elton v Stewart Lee

One particular remark in the interview has caught some people's attention. When he starts talking about always being questioned about being a sell-out he responds by saying: "I haven't said anything for 30 years. But it's been wearying. It just keeps coming around, every interview - 'So do you feel you've sold out?' Tell me what - apart from that Stewart Lee, whoever he is, thinks I have - might make you ask that?" People on social media have been wondering if this was a wry ironic joke or does Ben Elton really not know who Stewart Lee is?
