World-famous prankster and Lee Nelson creator Simon Brodkin returns with a blistering new stand-up show ripping into his ADHD diagnosis, I'm A Celebrity rejection, barmitzvah humiliation, five arrests and one sex party. Simon's last Fringe show (100% Simon Brodkin) was completely sold out and selected by The Guardian and the Evening Standard as one of their Best Comedy Shows. 'Hilarious' **** (Scotsman). 'There aren't many better comedians' **** (Telegraph). 'Stupid tosser' (Boris Johnson).

He talks to Isobel Lewis about moving on from his most famous creation, finding his own identity on stage and how his ADHD diagnosis has changed his life.
