Hello. Viggo here. Clown, Comedian and Norwegian. There will be a clown car, big shoes, an amazing balancing act, red balloons and a squirty flower. And best of all, it all takes place in a circus tent, The Magical SpiegelYurt! This will be a guaranteed failure - five shows only! 'My favourite clown in the world' (Julia Masli). 'Pure clown' (Natalie Palamides). 'Best clown I know' (Jonny Woolley, Zach Zucker's director). 'Nordic prince of alternative clowning' (Fest). 'I hate clowns' **** (Guardian). Clown in progress. No press allowed.

'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.

Viggo Venn: 'I made £10 a gig. But look at me now. New pants!'

The Norwegian clown, whose hi-vis strip show won BGT and took over TikTok, is bringing his silliness to a yurt in Edinburgh. 'Something bigger than me is happening,' he says. 'It's out of my control'.
