Lee was brought up on a council estate near the Bristol Docks and made his first gig at a Brighton pub memorable when he knocked himself out on a fire hydrant After leaving school he went through a series of dead-end jobs, including boxing which he gave up on because he was regularly getting hurt. He tried to follow in his father's footsteps as a holiday-camp entertainer but was regularly booed off the stage--until he found his niche in comedy, which led to the comedy films "Funny Bones" (1995), "Mousehunt" (1997), and "There's Something About Mary" (1998).
