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.
