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 →

Operation Mincemeat (2025)

We’re going a little out of our comfort zone today. We haven’t really reviewed actual theatre comedy since The Unfriend starring Lee Mack, but hey – what is life without challenges? It all began on New Year’s Eve… eve. That... 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 →

Police Cops: The Original (2025)

Well, this is an absolute treat. We’re sat under the tarpaulin roof of The Unicorn Bar, drinks in hand, sunshine streaming through, and it’s the last day of this year’s Edinburgh Fringe. But that lovely scene isn’t the treat I’m... Continue Reading →

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 →

Tim Minchin: Songs The World Will Never Hear (2025)

Forget Oasis – this was the gig we absolutely had to catch this year. Over the years, we’ve had the privilege of watching clowns transition from their very first Edinburgh shows to levels of fame and fortune they probably couldn’t... Continue Reading →

Eshaan Akbar: Yum (2025)

As the bright evening sun glistened across the stage, the four of us sat on our stools, mixed drinks in hand and wondered why we had never seen comedy in this place before. Where were we you ask, Honolulu? Havana?... Continue Reading →

Mixed Bill: Emily Bampton @ Comedy in Ruins (2025)

Ev-ree-bod-ee, everybody in the house of… gin? Okay, so that isn’t quite right, but hopefully, my incredibly dated music reference gives you some idea of just how much time I’ve spent in Walthamstow. I always get a little sceptical when... Continue Reading →
