John Tothill: This Must Be Heaven (2026)

We’ll get to the man who may be the youngest person to die on a cruise ship in a minute. But no review of ours can begin without a few drinks… and today’s. Were. Spectacular. We made our regular pilgrimage... Continue Reading →

Ralphie May: Just Correct (REC 2004)

I don’t think anyone can ever truly explain why social media algorithms decide to drop certain performers into your life. Sure, we all understand the theory behind the so-called “dark art” – watch one clip and suddenly you’re fed ten... Continue Reading →

Our Most Popular Comedy Shows Of 2025

Hello all! We used to do this annual wrap-up exclusively on Twitter, but this year we made the decision to step away from the platform. And yes, despite it being a pretty solid traffic generator for us, it’s also become... Continue Reading →

Mixed Bill: Russell Hicks @ The Castle (2025)

I know, I know – we weren’t supposed to be back here yet. We literally said in our last Castle comedy review that we’d return in December. But here’s what happened… It snowed. It frickin’ snowed. AND we’d spent the... Continue Reading →

Mark Thomas: WD40 (2025)

We’re very aware that this review is late. So very, very late. If we had a proper editor (and I always imagine J.K. Simmons as J. Jonah Jameson when I say that), he’d have been screaming at us for over... Continue Reading →

Mixed Bill: Carl Donnelly @ The Castle (2025)

This evening’s story actually started a few months ago, with a simple text from a pal: “Hey mate, just seen this poster — I think Carl Donnelly is playing my local!?!” Yes, that Carl Donnelly. The one we recently dubbed... Continue Reading →

Ivo Graham: Orange Crush (2025)

We’d fled the chaos of Pleasance Courtyard — not far, just down the hill to The Holyrood 9A and its frankly ridiculous gin selection (Rock Rose and Isle of Harris topped our highly scientific taste test, if you’re keeping score).... Continue Reading →

Pierre Novellie: You Sit There, I’ll Stand Here (2025)

Our evening started with chaos: a cab that never turned up, a failed attempt to leg it across town, and, for the first time ever, a missed Fringe show. The silver lining? It gave us plenty of time to get... Continue Reading →
