2010 Edinburgh Fringe
Tim Vine: The Joke-amotive
Sell-out 44-date UK tour now arrives. Star of BBC1 'Not Going Out' and 'Live at the Apollo', Tim Vine is the king of the one-liners. Here it comes over the brow of the hilarity. It's Tim Vine in a train. Stand back from the platform in case you get hit by a prop. Every carriage is packed full of gags. Chug chug joke, chug chug joke. Be on your guard. This train Timinates here. 'Offering line after line of glorious goofing' ***** (Times); 'Vine is superb' **** (Guardian); 'Vine is a supreme punmeister' (Time Out).

Emily Maitlis, BBC News, 23rd August 20108.43 - It's Tim Vine Time!
Tim Vine is a funny fella. And that is funny 'haha' and not funny 'weird'. Although I'm sure he'd admit to being a bit of the latter too.
