It starred stand-up comedian Alexei Sayle , with a recurring cast including Angus Deayton , Mark Williams , Arabella Weir , Tony Millan , Jan Ravens , Owen Brenman , Harriet Thorpe , and Felicity Montagu . The sketches were interspersed with Sayle's trademarked angry monologues. The style of humour was often surreal, blunt and offensive to many, with the bulk of the content written by Alexei himself, with Andrew Marshall and David Renwick . At the beginning of series 2 (in a sequence spoofing the creation of Disney 's Mickey Mouse ) it was revealed that Alexei Sayle was in fact a cartoon character. Viewers were shown a short extract from the very first animation from 50 years previously, named 'Steamboat Fatty' (spoofing, also, Steamboat Willie , the first Mickey Mouse cartoon). ''Alexei Sayle's Stuff'' was a prelude to his 1994 series '' The All New Alexei Sayle Show '', which was remarkably similar in content and was likewise followed by the less-successful '' Alexei Sayle's Merry-Go-Round '' in 1998.
