Best of 2014: comedy

It may not have been the most stellar year for comedy at the Edinburgh Fringe, but 2014 was made memorable not just by a long-awaited reunion, but also by witnessing a fine solo debut of a performer we're more used to seeing as part of a terrific double act. It was fun, too, to see the development of talented live performers - some newbies, another continuing to find her voice after a few years in the business. And lastly for seeing others keeping on doing what they do very, very well.

Dara O Briain review

As the show nears its end, he gives a précis of his interaction with the audience during the evening. It's a trick he's been doing for some years now, but it's still an astonishing skill to see done so well as he mines even more jokes out of what has transpired earlier. A master at work.

Review: John Bishop, touring

He's not a great gagsmith, but occasionally turns a nice phrase.

Review: Steen Raskopoulos, Soho Theatre

I'm Wearing Two Suits Because I Mean Business is a very fine hour of sketch and character comedy.
