Part Neanderthal Canadian, part Trinidadian Law brings his half baked thoughts and theories on these last couple of years and a little time travel to boot. Yes I have lockdown material. Also total nonsense. Ghost stuff. It might not always make sense but it’s always funny. Farm boy blue collar surreal absurdity in his own very unique style. For those with a different take or taste in comedy.

A study in trying to see all sides and driving yourself slowly mad. From arguing about feminism with her mother to trying to understand a parents natural position of fear. From trying to be eco friendly with a moon cup to realising that dolphins are sexual predators. From dismissing Americans idea of boozing and sobriety to understanding what alcohol is like without the safety net of a healthcare system. From the superiority feminism of pointing fingers to what is genuine progress for women. From learning about air rights to trying to uncover the systemic homelessness problem. From trying to accept ageing gracefully but acknowledging our looks based currency. From wanting men to understand consent but knowing that women owning their sexual power is as important. You know…NUANCE Tiff goes in depth to explore the modern conundrums that keep us awake at night. Discourse on social media is no way to have a conversation. Much better to spend an hour with a woman who overthinks it all.

The biggest-titted Edinburgh ‘Best Show’ nominees return with a preview version of their new show, ‘Nowt But Sea’

Learn the horrifying true story of what happened when Amy and Christopher-Louise decided to hide from their problems on a remote island. As tensions flare and psyches fray, how will Yorkshire’s finest meat-themed duo survive? As seen/heard on Late Night Mash (Dave), Alma’s Not Normal (BBC 2) and their own bloody effin’ BBC Radio 2 special.

There are wallies everywhere and half of them are running the country. The other half are trying to. Matt Forde (Spitting Image, Have I Got News For You, The Last Leg, The Royal Variety Performance) lashes out right, left and centre. And chucks in some funny voices.

“Our foremost satirical stand-up…Whatever your politics, you’ll find excellence here” ★★★★ Stephen Armstrong, The Sunday Times “Possibly the best political comedy show on the Fringe” ★★★★★ Dominic Cavendish, The Telegraph “Forde is as gratifyingly sane as comedians come… smart, funny ideas” ★★★★ Dominic Maxwell, The Times

The multi-award winning comedian presents his brand new show.

Tired of the goose? Swan Power is here. Paul opens his beak and explores topics including Nanna on the rack, murdering Santas and interfering ambulance drivers (self-appointed busybodies!) Plus Billy Zane’s Valuable Diamond (c/o RMS Titanic). Live by the swan, fly by the swan.

“Like a rare exotic bird, he’s special” The Daily Express “Sublime, original, brilliant” The Independent “Something of a comic genius” The Sydney Morning Herald

Ever wondered if what you are seeing and hearing is real? Feel like your trust in the audio-visual spectrum has been shaken? Charlie explores the increasing dangers – and benefits – of deepfakes and misinformation while doing a few impressions along the way

After 21 years and 224 days Hal’s back being single. But it’s all going to be fine. Instead of getting the therapy he clearly needs, he’s made a cracking show about it!

He’s lost enough weight to almost get his wedding ring off and, while he may be flying solo, he’s far from alone; he’s got his grown-up daughters, his dogs and his divorce lawyer. Hal, and his soon to be ex-wife Dawn, are part of the surge in ‘grey’ divorces. His hair certainly is and hers changes colour so often that she’s not quite sure. But this show isn’t just for those who’ve been through divorce and single people who need cheering up. It’s also for blissfully happy couples who can’t imagine that their marriage will fail and that smug look will be wiped off their face.

<h4This show not only makes you laugh but gives hope and a shared experience to the 42% of the population that get divorced in the UK – just don’t tell them that 60% of 2nd marriages end in divorce too! So make a date to see a show from a man who hasn’t had a date since 1999 when conversation revolved around the twist in ‘The Sixth Sense’, 'will the Millennium Bug kill us' and 'isn’t that Boris guy funny on ‘Have I Got New For You’.

Hal has made several appearances on ‘Live at the Apollo’ (BBC1 & 2), ‘Have I Got News For You’ (BBC1), ‘The Royal Variety Performance’ (ITV1), ‘Would I Lie To You’ (BBC1) ‘The One Show’ (BBC1), ‘The Great British Bake Off: An Extra Slice’ (BBC2 & Channel 4) and ‘The Apprentice: You’re Fired’ (BBC2). TV also includes ‘Richard Osman’s House of Games’ (BBC2), ‘Mock the Week’ (BBC2), ‘Guessable’ (Comedy Central), ‘Celebrity Mastermind’ (BBC1), ‘Celebrity Chase (ITV1), ‘The Wright Stuff’ (Channel 5), ‘Edinburgh Comedy Fest Live’ (BBC3), ‘The Melbourne Comedy Festival Gala’ (Channel 10 Australia), ‘Just For Laughs Gala’ (CBC Canada), and ‘Celebrity Tipping Point’ (ITV1).

Bumbling wordsmith and tripe factory returns to discuss three years of heavy-duty pranking/parenting/procrastinating since Dave’s 2019 nominations for Best Comedy Show and Joke of the Fringe (‘I’ve got an Eton College advent calendar, where all the doors are opened by my father’s contacts’).

As seen/heard on Mock The Week, Live At The Apollo, Have I Got News For You, British As Folk and was the fondue-set winner on Richard Osman’s House of Games. “A hugely enjoyable hour of stand-up comedy” Times

Britain’s favourite French comedian presents his greatest oeuvres from the past decade. Expect deadpan wit, supreme sex poetry, soaring miserablist chansons and Gallic superiority.
