"The shareholders' dividends were ring-fenced against pirate zombie infestations"

It's a bit tricky to develop fresh stand-up material when the only movies you've seen recently are a single viewing of an art film about middle class people on a disappointing holiday (Archipelago) and approximately 180 viewings of Scooby Doo and the Pirate Zombie Jungle Island. Still, Stewart Lee has a good old go at making his source material 100% relevant to a contemporary audience, particularly those deeply concerned with the funding and maintenance of the formerly world-beating British publicly-funded jungle canyon rope bridge network. (From his 2012 stand-up DVD, Carpet Remnant World).
