The World of Lee Evans is a BAFTA-nominated television comedy series written by and starring Lee Evans. It was produced by Granada Television for Channel 4 and aired four episodes (featuring two stories each) in June 1995. Channel 4 announced that The World of Lee Evans was officially cancelled after the first series.
The series followed Lee around getting stuck in tight situations - its humour, which differs greatly from Evans' later stand-up material, contains many elements of slapstick, and the show is similar in style to Mr. Bean. It won a cult following but has received a very mixed reception in retrospect with some critics and fans comparing it unfavourably to his other work.
The series' slogan is If Lee Evans needs to get from A to B, he starts at Z....
