With just over one week left of the world's greatest arts festival, Ian Cater lists his top ten comedy shows to see if you're lucky enough to be north of the border before the Edinburgh Fringe comes to a close on 27th August.

Ian Cater, What's On London, 18th August 2018Nish Kumar hosts this standup showcase over two nights as part of the BBC's Big British Asian Summer. It is a smart, very funny alternative to the plodding middle-of-the-road-fest of Live at the Apollo. Highlights of tonight's show include Eshaan Akbar talking about his parents' casual racism towards each other and Emily Lloyd-Saini relating an encounter with a flirty waxing technician. Looking for more laughs? Edinburgh Nights with Nish Kumar follows at 11.05pm, in which he takes a look behind the scenes at the festival.
