One man's day at the Edinburgh Fringe
Mark, a man of mystery who runs the British Comedy Guide website, had sent me a piece about Abigoliah Schamaun, who has been plastering fake review quotes and stars on her show posters. He suggested she might be a worthy Malcolm Hardee Cunning Stunt Award nominee.

"Your comedy character is called The Herbert," I said to Spencer Jones. "Well," he told me, "I wanted to call him The Dickhead. Dickhead to me is quite a nice term: He's a dickhead - I like him. It feels like a warm character to me. But Northerners told me it was too strong."

John Fleming, John Fleming's Blog, 28th July 2015Dapper Laughs, Oscar Wilde & 'buzz word' offensiveness
Daniel O'Reilly in his character (Is it a character?) of Dapper Laughs is the comedian who just keeps giving to journalists. He needs better PR advice. Or does he?
