My Edinburgh: Richard Herring, comedian

It was the first Saturday of the Edinburgh Fringe. I'd just finished my show and I was back in my flat drinking herbal tea on my own. What has become of me? I have become old. And I am attempting to get through the entire festival without a single drink of alcohol. What madness is this? Alcohol is all that has got me through my previous 18 Fringes.

The Fringe Interview - Richard Herring

Richard Herring used to be on Telly. This year he'll be performing his 27th stand up show (his 19th at the Fringe). He'll be offending/ amusing people in equal measure throughout the Fringe with his show 'Christ on a Bike'. He answers the Edinburgh Girl's burning questions.

The second coming: Richard Herring

This Is Bristol, 24th June 2010

The powers of Charlie Brooker's persuasiveness are showcased in all their splendour on So Wrong It's Right (Radio 4, Tuesday), the panel game that celebrates "the wrong side of life". This week, Brooker got Liza Tarbuck to admit to rigging up a homemade device and siphoning off petrol from her dad Jimmy's saloon ("He kept us on quite a tight leash, financially," was her defence). Richard Herring, meanwhile, confessed he once pooed his own pants - and seemed delighted to be telling all. In case you're worried, he was still at primary school at the time.
