Who will be funniest at this year's Fringe? Ben Williams selects the best of the bunch
Ben Williams, Fest Mag, 15th July 2017Best comedy shows at the Edinburgh Fringe 2017
We pick out the must-see comedy shows that are already giving us goosebumps of excitement.
Brian Donaldson, The List, 11th July 2017This series sees four young comedians - Jamali Maddix, Fern Brady, Alfie Brown and Sean McLoughlin - travel around Europe doing standup, and exploring the continent their xenophobic elders are currently insisting we leave. Judging by this opener - a sojourn in Copenhagen, Denmark - it's light on the cultural analysis and heavier on the standup, with Brown delivering a funny but barely EU-relevant routine, much of it about masturbation.

British Comedy Guide, 25th April 2017Fern Brady interview
"When you walk on stage at a strip club, everyone thinks 'this is how it should be, this makes sense'. Whereas if you're a woman and walk on stage in a comedy club, lots of people can't contain their disappointment."
