Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
This gig made them the first comedians to sell out Wembley Stadium, effectively inventing the 'stadium comedy' model that would later enable Michael McIntyre's arena tours.
The tour's 'Piss-Take' single actually charted at number 1, making Baddiel briefly more successful as a musician than Newman was as a comedian—a tension the documentary dances around.
