Glastonbury is so expensive nowadays, isn't it. My advice is that you shouldn't try and get tickets xx
Do you know what, I was pretty baffled by this year's Edinburgh Comedy Awards nominees. My thoughts here:
Mark Muldoon shares his thoughts on the Edinburgh Comedy Awards nominations, plus rounds up the best chaotic late night shows you can find at the Fringe.

Superb choice of winner 👏

Sketch duo Britney had a brief lighting fault yesterday. They quipped "oh, is that the eclipse?". Best eclipse ad-lib of the Edinburgh Fringe award winner
It's true I'm seeing simply lots of comedy and letting you know the best ones. And this service is free! What a deal! You don't even have to accept cookies if you don't want to!
Comedy columnist Mark Muldoon returns to the Fringe, starting off his trip with John-Luke Roberts, Jack Ansett, Elf Lyons, Bella Hull, Geoffrey Asmus, Celia Pacquola, and Those People.

My last pre-Edinburgh London engagement was to see Peter Kay's last tour date in the capital, yesterday. Proper pallet cleanser before the Fringe - awful comedy at the largest scale
The Edinburgh Fringe starts this week! Remember, if somebody recommends a comedian to you, use this hierarchy to work out whether to pay attention to them or not:
Sad this venue is closing. Fantastic building. Always got the impression they didn't have the marketing firepower to sell their Fringe-y programme, and never seemed to attract the big names that would sell out the venue without the need for any marketing

All those high profile crowd-pleasing policy announcements and barely any bounce in the polls 😬
The latest YouGov voting intention poll for The Times and Sky News, the first since Andy Burnham became prime minister on Monday, shows a similarly close race to our previous poll, with Reform UK on 23% of the vote, Labour on 21% and the Conservatives on 20%.
•Reform UK: 23% (no change from 19-20 Jul)
•Labour: 21% (+1)
•Conservatives: 20% (-1)
•Lib Dems: 14% (+2)
•Greens: 13% (-1)
•Restore Britain: 4% (+1)
•SNP: 3% (=)
•Plaid Cymru: 1% (-1)
•Your Party: 0% (=)
•Others: 1% (=)
Criticising a light entertainment TV show for being "unnecessary" seems harsh. Are you arguing the genre shouldn't exist?
Decent show. Format seems good, returning cast great. A majority female lineup for ep 1, too. Which is, well, a necessary corrective

It's true. I basically wanted to write about the weirdest comedy night I could find
