Fringe Q&As: Sam Fletcher

Sam Fletcher talks about his new show, Daftwerk.

The Herald, 23rd August 2016

Rarely asked questions - Sam Fletcher

If you like your comedy quirky and lo-fi Sam Fletcher is your man. In the past the Edinburgh Comedy Awards Best Newcomer nominee and CBBC star has mixed (sort of) magic tricks with David Shrigleyish illustrations and crackpot inventions that would quickly get him thrown off of Dragon's Den. Which would be human giant Peter Jones and that lemon-faced woman's loss. Fletcher is back in Edinburgh with a new show to amuse and amaze his fans. Read his jolly answers and go and see his jolly funny show.

Comedy review: Rob Auton: The Yellow Show

Rob Auton, 30, is a talent to watch - a poet/ comedian/ illustrator, who combines the whimsical appeal of early Josie Long and the lo-fi artistry of Sam Fletcher with a hint of the menace of Tim Key.

This week's new comedy

Reviews of Sam Fletcher, Ian D. Montfort and Henning Wehn.

James Kettle, The Guardian, 2nd February 2013

The jury's out on whether this bright, noisy sketch show - with skits including Come Dine With Me (featuring Jesus) and a relationship counsellor who talks in street slang - will make it beyond the pilot stage. But the committed performances by its cast (including Rich Fulcher who popped up in The Mighty Boosh) may see sitcom offers come their way. Plus it's a chance to catch newcomer Sam Fletcher - the main man in the bum-bag/third nipple sketch - who is fresh from a critically acclaimed run at the Edinburgh Fringe.
