2014 Edinburgh Fringe

The ray of sunshine himself performs cheerfully miserable stand-up. His dulcet tones are heard frequently on radio (Just A Minute, Alun Cochrane's Fun House, Frank Skinner's Absolute show) and his dour face sometimes appears on TV. 'Alun Cochrane is the best, as well as the most natural stand-up I've seen at the Fringe this year... By the end of the show, some people in the audience literally can't stop laughing. Expect Alun Cochrane to be filling arenas soon' (Nicholas Barber, Independent). (The above quote was years ago, and he still isn't doing arenas...)
