Audio: Alfie Moore - stand-up comedy is like policing
Policeman-turned-stand-up comedian Alfie Moore told 5 Live's Richard Bacon that in some ways 'stand-up is similar to police work'.
Mr Moore has returned to the Edinburgh Fringe Festival with his show I Predicted A Riot.
Alongside comedian Al Murray, he revealed the best ways to create a connection with the audience- be they in a theatre or on the street.
Richard Bacon, BBC News, 22nd August 2012Interview: Alfie Moore
When you think of the boys in blue then series like The Bill or, if you, like me can stretch your memory a bit further back, Juliet Bravo. Alfie Moore is everything but that, managing to inject his observational wit into the tales his 19 years of experience on the Humberside force have provided him. As a result of last year's riots coinciding with the Edinburgh Festival Fringe he was unable to get his show off the ground. This year, not even the Olympics can stop him.
