Stewart Lee's Comedy Vehicle

This week Stewart Lee looks at the notion of national identities and asks where they come from, what they really mean to people and whether any of them have even the remotest basis in fact or if they are all merely national myths made up to make us feel better about ourselves.

Well, as it turns out, not all of them are, no. Though there are one or two of the country's iconic national heroes who'll be seen in a slightly different light after this episode.
