Unfiltered confession is often part of the stand-up comedy job description, but nobody takes it as far as Simon Amstell. In his latest show I Love It Here the former Never Mind The Buzzcocks host reveals his favourite sexual positions, his hallucinogenic drug of choice and how he adores his bigger bum: "I used to just have legs and a hole". Welcome to Simon's world.
His hugely enjoyable monologue is an account of a recent sojourn in LA. It's a tale bulging with deftly-crafted lines and shameless name-dropping. Having been loaned a Gucci suit he attends an awards bash for Baz Luhrmann hosted by Leonardo DiCaprio where he meets Laura Dern, Ricky Martin and Charli xcx. Luhrmann, amusingly, can't seem to get over the fact that Amstell is gay.
