Bright-eyed enthusiasm sees Tony Jameson through this wonderful hour. Ostensibly about his 20-year playing career with Football Manager, with this show we're taken on a ride with a man possessed....

Conceptual shows can be fantastic. In the case of Ray Bradshaw there is certainly a concept – to undertake and discuss dares made to him by friends and strangers – and it's...

The modest title of David Kay's show is entirely in fitting with his persona as the ironically self-proclaimed 'Fireball of Scottish Comedy.' Far from arriving like a fireball, he ambles...

On a bleak and cold Friday night Steffen Peddie manages to create a warm atmosphere for the few of us who have abandoned the crowds of frustrated football fans occupying...

Comedy has been in the news for all the wrong reasons recently. Aggresive, misogynistic, tolerant of rape and, worst of all, a bit pointless. That final charge is the most...
