'Funny, clever and as brilliantly observed as you'll find' (Scotsman). 'Very few stand-ups will be as palpably funny as this' ***** (Sunday Herald).

Some acts straddle both camps, of course, but here we present ten Edinburgh-bound acts known more for their work in the clubs than at the Fringe, but who've certainly proved their abilities in front of audiences over the years...

If you're a Geordie, a Mackem, a Smoggy, or any other variety of North-Eastern beast in Edinburgh, pining for a taste of God's Country, here's a gaggle of outstanding local talent to sate you. Brown Ale and chicken parmo not included.
