The stars who made it big at the Edinburgh Fringe
'I saw them long before they became famous' is a common Fringe-goer's boast. But, as Fiona Shepherd discovers, there's a good reason for that.

Brian Donaldson, The List, 16th June 2015Radio Times review
The sixth year of Channel 4's admirable fundraising drive for Great Ormond Street Hospital. If you're an avid and knowledgeable fan of any of these acts, this might not be the best environment in which to see them, since there are an awful lot to get through. But to take the temperature of live comedy right now and see who's at the top of their game or on the up, it's ideal.
The really big names are led by Alan Carr, Michael McIntyre and Jack Dee, with Aisling Bea, Sara Pascoe and Katherine Ryan among the others to look out for. Also on the bill is sharp, politically astute South African stand-up Trevor Noah, getting in a UK gig while he can before he takes over the hallowed Daily Show in the US.
Jack Seale, Radio Times, 7th June 2015The John Bishop Show review
This unapologetically, even proudly, retro venture sees Paul Weller, comedians, and a beatboxer topped off with the wit of Trevor Noah, who turns the joke on us.
