The Stand

Admin

Oh for God's sake. I have done this for 38 years. A career full of the usual stuff, telly, awards, radio. Also court cases, sacked politicians and Guinness Book of World Records certificates. You either like me or you don't. If you don't know what I do, ask an old person. I rant, tell jokes, sing some songs, swear a lot and urge the audience to join the comedic equivalent of the Red Army Faction. Basically don't come if you're a Tory unless you actually want to be a hostage. Everyone else welcome. Everyone else loved.

'I almost died. Just kidding! I only broke my leg': comedians share their Edinburgh fringe horror stories

'I almost died. Just kidding! I only broke my leg': comedians share their Edinburgh fringe horror stories. The fringe can take its toll, but it's all good material, right? Whether it's pukey kisses, sleeping through a gig, or politician-induced paranoia, Ed Byrne, Paul Sinha, Olga Koch et al have lived to tell the tale. Plus! Ten shows to see this year.
