Edinburgh Fringe preview: Dave Griffiths

When Griffiths wore a T-shirt that said "CNUT" alongside the words 'French Correction' he came into conflict with a clothing brand that also happened to have a slogan that jumbles up the letters of a rude word. A comedian could not possibly let this one go, so Griffiths took them on and, of course, got a show out of it, which premiered in Edinburgh last year.
