2019 Edinburgh Fringe
Phil Nichol: Too Much
The planet is messed up. Society has devolved. Mankind is hopeless. Vegans are right. You can't punch a fascist. The left are self-righteous morons. Everyone is a selfish prick. I'm a bleeding hypocrite. It's all too much. Too much. Following on from the success of his internationally acclaimed hit show [fYour Wrong[/l], Too Much takes an unflinching look at ageing, recognition, mental health, values, norms, patience, everything and conkers. Expect riotously uncomfortable anecdotes and oversharing delivered in Nichol's unique live-wire style. 'Fabulous, life-affirming' **** (Evening Standard). 'Mind-blowing' ***** (Scotland on Sunday). 'Masterful' ***** (Herald).

Becca Moody, Moody Comedy, 29th July 2019Edinburgh preview: Returning Champions
It's hard to stay away from Edinburgh whether you are new to the comedy game or an old hand. This year there are a number of brilliant comedians coming back who have won the Edinburgh Comedy Award, best known as the Perrier but now sponsored by digital channel Dave. You can only win the top award once and there are certainly easier ways to make money, so why come back? It must be for the sheer fun and the incredible buzz of the Fringe.
