This is but one of the many ‘Best Ofs ‘ that are everywhere on the Fringe, a fairly easy show to run, who doesn’t want to promote their main show after all and it’s good for the audience too as they get to try before you buy on a number of show.

The show I saw had   a piece of Norwegian dram to start of proceedings, followed by compere Tom Craine playing at The Pleasance.

Tom introduced ‘Life of Si’ a double act of Simon Feilder and Sy Thomas with comedy sketches and stand-up,  comedian James Dowdeswell and finishing off with a set from Alistair Barrie.

All in all a great line up and a different show each day. What a way to spend an hour and all for the cost of a fiver too
