Brian Donaldson, The List, 17th March 2017Review - Richard Herring: The Best
The Best is a wonderful collection of wry and irreverent takes on modern life. Rattling through the routines, with awkward gear changes aplenty, Herring still clearly possesses a deft skill for audience manipulation and a unique perspective on the stuff of life.

Steve Bennett, Chortle, 4th January 2017Bruce Dessau's top comedy gigs for 2016
Having been spoilt for choice when it came to picking TV highlights the live highlights felt thinner on the ground this year. The Edinburgh Fringe featured a lot of very good shows but few really great ones. Maybe comedians were a little knocked sideways by the Brexit vote. but two did respond well - see below. Elsewhere there were a few excellent big gigs and small gigs and it was nice to see some West End runs rather than bank raid arena one-offs. These shows are listed in absolutely no particular order.
