You'll love some of the invention "cult idiot" William Andrews has brought to Edinburgh. Fun material sold with a great left field persona.


A joyful return to stand-up for this cult idiot. William is wholeheartedly embracing the Willy he always was, telling remarkable stories with a beguiling blend of daft creativity and ingenuity. Yes, he was in Alan Partridge, for like a tiny bit. Yes, he had a spot on Him & Her. Yes, he was in the second series of Broadchurch (the one that didn't make sense), but no, for the last time, he wasn't in Horrible Histories (he was in the other one). 'All hail the comedians you could never clone' (Times).

Look at my face and weep, child journalist

My recommendations for fringe performers embarking on the fringe: Get in a fucking time machine, go back to that Sunday afternoon when you made your sisters friend laugh and it made you feel all gooey inside, and shoot yourself in the face with a cheap Polish firework.
