0:00:02 > 0:00:03Hello! I'm Chris Ramsey.

0:00:03 > 0:00:05Welcome to Comedy At The Fringe here on BBC3!

0:00:08 > 0:00:16This programme contains strong language.

0:00:25 > 0:00:27CHEERING

0:00:29 > 0:00:31Ye-e-es!

0:00:31 > 0:00:33Edinburgh Festival!

0:00:33 > 0:00:35Whoo!

0:00:35 > 0:00:38Yes! Ooh!

0:00:38 > 0:00:42Give me a cheer if you've been to the Fringe before.

0:00:42 > 0:00:46Excellent stuff. Give us a cheer if it's your first time.

0:00:46 > 0:00:48One guy!

0:00:48 > 0:00:51Mate, you look like it's the first time you've been out of the house!

0:00:51 > 0:00:53"Yeah!

0:00:53 > 0:00:56"The sky's blue!"

0:00:56 > 0:01:02Magic. We've got an amazing, amazing night. It's the maddest comedy night I've ever been part of.

0:01:02 > 0:01:07It's going to be good stuff. You've got your drink on the stage. Disrespectful. No, keep it there.

0:01:07 > 0:01:12We all built this today so you could use it as a table.

0:01:12 > 0:01:14He put it back! Fair play.

0:01:14 > 0:01:18- What's your name, pal?- Mark.- Mark? He just froze after that.

0:01:18 > 0:01:23"Mark. That's all you're getting." What have you been doing today?

0:01:23 > 0:01:28- Er...not much. - Mark's bottled it immediately.

0:01:28 > 0:01:34- What do you do? - I'm employed as of Monday.- Employed as of Monday? Congratulations!

0:01:34 > 0:01:37- CHEERING - That's amazing.

0:01:37 > 0:01:42- What did you do before?- Student. - Studying?- Geography.

0:01:42 > 0:01:46Geography. Fantastic. You found your way here. Well done.

0:01:46 > 0:01:50- What's the job? - Selling charity challenge holidays.

0:01:50 > 0:01:57Selling charity challenge holidays. Four years at university well spent there, mate.

0:01:57 > 0:02:03Right, we are going to crack on now. Please, give it up for Radio One's beatbox champion

0:02:03 > 0:02:07It's the fantastic PETEBOX!

0:02:07 > 0:02:09CHEERING

0:02:10 > 0:02:12THROBBING BASS

0:02:15 > 0:02:17DANCE BEAT BEGINS

0:02:23 > 0:02:25Ye-eah!

0:02:26 > 0:02:30So PETEBOX is going to be on and off introing acts on and stuff.

0:02:30 > 0:02:35Instead of a little CD player to get acts on, he'll do the intros.

0:02:35 > 0:02:40All good? Happy with that? You had no choice in the matter.

0:02:40 > 0:02:45But I made it look like you did. Nice if it was a democracy, but it's not.

0:02:45 > 0:02:49You're like, "If I haven't got a choice, I'm leaving."

0:02:49 > 0:02:53Are you? Good. We have got all kinds of acts tonight.

0:02:53 > 0:02:57It's stand up, it's sketch, it's musical. All kinds of acts.

0:02:57 > 0:03:03Crazy stuff, avant garde, everything. This is a slice of the Fringe for the people at home

0:03:03 > 0:03:08and for you people who just got drunk and came to something cos it said BBC.

0:03:08 > 0:03:12Are you ready for your first fantastic act?

0:03:12 > 0:03:16Welcome on stage the brilliant Naz Osmanoglu!

0:03:21 > 0:03:25Hello! How are we doing? Are we well?

0:03:25 > 0:03:29Hello, Edinburgh. My name is Naz Osmanoglu. I'm half-English, half-Turkish.

0:03:29 > 0:03:32- It's very difficult being dual nationality.- Yeah!

0:03:32 > 0:03:34Hello, there. There's my dad, my mum.

0:03:34 > 0:03:36It's very difficult.

0:03:36 > 0:03:40My father is Turkish, my mother is English. They're both a bit racist,

0:03:40 > 0:03:43so I...hate myself.

0:03:43 > 0:03:47Yes, my dad is a very angry Turkish man. He's also very rude.

0:03:47 > 0:03:51He sort of makes up his own language. It's a patois.

0:03:51 > 0:03:55A combination between pidgin English and constant aggression.

0:03:55 > 0:04:02He makes up his own phrases, such as, "Shut up your face!" That means, "Please be quiet."

0:04:02 > 0:04:06"What the shit are you doing?" That means, "Lovely to meet you."

0:04:06 > 0:04:10Sometimes he just abbreviates phrases. "Fuck out!"

0:04:11 > 0:04:16My personal favourite, to be honest, is, "Fuck out, asshole!"

0:04:16 > 0:04:19Which means, "Naz, not now."

0:04:19 > 0:04:22He's very self-important, my father. Very self-important.

0:04:22 > 0:04:29He's never really used public transport. He doesn't understand how buses work.

0:04:29 > 0:04:35"No, keep going. I don't want to get off here. I have not yet reached my destination.

0:04:35 > 0:04:40"I do not want to fuck out here." Even when he hails a cab. "Please, take me home."

0:04:40 > 0:04:43He assumes people know where he lives.

0:04:43 > 0:04:48Sometimes communication totally breaks down. Especially with women.

0:04:48 > 0:04:55He was trying to compliment a lady on her perfume. It was innocent, but came out as, "I like your smell!"

0:04:55 > 0:05:00This is my father. We're similar in some ways, though.

0:05:00 > 0:05:05I'm awful with public transport. I hate it. I get overcharged by accident.

0:05:05 > 0:05:09The other day I was travelling from London Paddington to Bristol.

0:05:09 > 0:05:13I was trying to use my Young Person's Railcard, but it was void.

0:05:13 > 0:05:20They treated me like I was no longer young or a person! They charged me £169 for a return journey.

0:05:20 > 0:05:22£169!

0:05:22 > 0:05:26I want to buy a train ticket, not the fucking train!

0:05:26 > 0:05:32£169! The guy's there in the hi-vis jacket going, "No, no, no. Rules are rules. Don't shoot the messenger."

0:05:32 > 0:05:40How can I?! I can't afford a fucking gun! What kind of maniac charges £169?!

0:05:40 > 0:05:44For £169, I could fly to Greece and back...with Greece!

0:05:45 > 0:05:49For £169 I expect my own personal carriage,

0:05:49 > 0:05:54with a Jacuzzi on one end and the beach on the other!

0:05:54 > 0:05:57I want a pedalo and I want a tan when I arrive!

0:05:57 > 0:06:02And for £169, do you know what else? Toilets that don't smell of pish and shit!

0:06:02 > 0:06:06Then, of course, came the inevitable delay.

0:06:06 > 0:06:11"We are sorry for the delay to this service due to all the money we have taken off you

0:06:11 > 0:06:14"weighing the train down!"

0:06:15 > 0:06:22You've been absolutely lovely. Thank you, unless you are from the train company, in which case fuck out!

0:06:22 > 0:06:26Thank you, good evening and good night. Bye bye!

0:06:27 > 0:06:32Naz Osmanoglu, everyone! What about Naz Osmanoglu?!

0:06:32 > 0:06:35Are you ready for Romesh Ranganathan?

0:06:35 > 0:06:39Welcome, Romesh Ranganathan!

0:06:39 > 0:06:41CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

0:06:43 > 0:06:47Hello. I'm very excited to be here.

0:06:48 > 0:06:50WHOOPING

0:06:50 > 0:06:53- Are we enjoying the weather?- Yes! - I like the weather like this.

0:06:53 > 0:06:58I don't like extremes. Last summer where I lived, it was extremely hot.

0:06:58 > 0:07:02I was sitting in the barber's, complaining about how hot it was.

0:07:02 > 0:07:07This complete stranger turned to me and he says, "I can't believe you lot.

0:07:08 > 0:07:12"I can't believe you lot. You come over here, don't you, eh?

0:07:12 > 0:07:16"Come over here and complain about how bloody hot it is!"

0:07:16 > 0:07:22And I thought, "I am going to put this prick in his place." Assuming that I'm an immigrant!

0:07:22 > 0:07:28So I said to him, "Well, actually, sir, the climatic conditions in Crawley,

0:07:28 > 0:07:34"where I originate from are very similar to the ones that we're experiencing here.

0:07:36 > 0:07:38"Just goes to show you."

0:07:40 > 0:07:46To which his genuine response was, "Bloody hell, mate! You're picking up the language brilliantly."

0:07:48 > 0:07:53So I complained about that, but in the winter one of my favourite pastimes

0:07:53 > 0:07:58is to pretend to passers-by that I've just arrived in the country

0:07:58 > 0:08:02and I'm seeing snow for the very first time.

0:08:06 > 0:08:11On a really good day, they take photographs, which is lovely.

0:08:11 > 0:08:17I'm quite an antisocial person. Life keeps telling me I shouldn't interact with anyone at all.

0:08:17 > 0:08:22I'll give you an example of this. I was on my way to a concert at the O2 -

0:08:22 > 0:08:28I'm not showing off, but things are going all right - and I was on the train

0:08:28 > 0:08:32and speaking to a mate I was meeting and I said as a bit of banter,

0:08:32 > 0:08:36"How will I know which one is the O2?"

0:08:36 > 0:08:40Not excellent, I admit, but I was oiling the wheels of conversation.

0:08:40 > 0:08:46This woman opposite me looks at me and goes, "It looks like a big tent."

0:08:46 > 0:08:50So a) she thought that I really didn't know what it looked like

0:08:50 > 0:08:55and b) she thought I wouldn't recognise it when I got there,

0:08:55 > 0:09:01like I might knock on the door of somebody's house and go, "Is Dizzee Rascal in here or what?"

0:09:01 > 0:09:05Then it occurred to me that this woman is actually trying to help me.

0:09:05 > 0:09:07I don't want to act like an idiot.

0:09:07 > 0:09:15So I thought, "How can I respond in a way that makes it look like that was the right thing for her to do?"

0:09:15 > 0:09:18So I just turned to her and said...

0:09:18 > 0:09:21COMEDY INDIAN ACCENT: Thank you very much.

0:09:21 > 0:09:25And then I remembered that she had heard the rest of the conversation.

0:09:25 > 0:09:28So I just looked like a nutter.

0:09:28 > 0:09:33I, um, I used to be a teacher. You might not be able to tell. WHOOPING

0:09:33 > 0:09:35- Are there teachers in?- Whoo!

0:09:35 > 0:09:39I definitely don't want to have a conversation with you.

0:09:39 > 0:09:42- I used to be a Maths teacher.- Whoo!

0:09:42 > 0:09:47Oh, my God. People are cheering Maths. I wasn't expecting that.

0:09:47 > 0:09:50The school that I taught at, they had uniform.

0:09:50 > 0:09:56They wanted us to clamp down on uniform, to make sure that shirts were tucked in et cetera.

0:09:56 > 0:10:00Don't worry about spelling and numeracy. Let's get this sorted out.

0:10:00 > 0:10:08And we had a Sixth Form at our school and telling Sixth Form lads to sort their uniform out

0:10:08 > 0:10:12is absolutely not a problem. I've got no issue with that.

0:10:12 > 0:10:18Telling Sixth Form girls to sort their uniform out is something I feel more uncomfortable about.

0:10:18 > 0:10:22I don't want to have that conversation. It's embarrassing.

0:10:22 > 0:10:28But I found if I just looked at them for long enough, they soon covered themselves up.

0:10:28 > 0:10:31I mean the lazy eye helped. Just...

0:10:33 > 0:10:39And the thing is, right, the textbooks are multi-cultural.

0:10:39 > 0:10:43So every single question has got to have a black kid and a white kid.

0:10:43 > 0:10:46Or a white kid and an Asian kid.

0:10:46 > 0:10:52I don't know about you, but I wouldn't want to hang out with a kid of another colour

0:10:52 > 0:10:56if every time I met up with him he wanted to do bloody Maths!

0:10:56 > 0:11:02- I don't want to disappoint anybody, but I am actually married.- Awww!

0:11:02 > 0:11:05Oh, piss off. I've got two children, right,

0:11:05 > 0:11:10and I've been very excited because I found a way to tell off other people's children.

0:11:10 > 0:11:17I love my children, but when you go out, you have to deal with other people's children. Very awkward.

0:11:17 > 0:11:21I don't want to tell them off, but I found a way.

0:11:21 > 0:11:25I was at the cinema recently. This kid was being a little prick.

0:11:25 > 0:11:29Throwing popcorn about and stuff. His parents did nothing about it.

0:11:29 > 0:11:33So I just crouched down quietly and said, "Listen, you little shithead,

0:11:33 > 0:11:37"pull that again and I'm going to punch you in the face. Understand?"

0:11:37 > 0:11:41And then as his parents approached me and could hear, I went,

0:11:41 > 0:11:46"And that's why you shouldn't say that to brown people. OK? Sorry.

0:11:46 > 0:11:48"Don't worry about it.

0:11:48 > 0:11:51"Don't worry, it's fine."

0:11:51 > 0:11:55You should try it, but you'll have to brown up. It's worth it.

0:11:55 > 0:12:00I've been Romesh Ranganathan. Thank you very much! CHEERING

0:12:00 > 0:12:02Yes! Romesh Ranganathan, everyone!

0:12:02 > 0:12:05Give it up, give it up!

0:12:05 > 0:12:08We're going to do a song for you now.

0:12:08 > 0:12:11It's a love song and it's called Horse Outside.

0:12:13 > 0:12:17It's about being at a wedding and things go really well.

0:12:19 > 0:12:20# Oh

0:15:31 > 0:15:33CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

0:15:38 > 0:15:40Let me hear you shout, "Janey!"

0:15:40 > 0:15:44How are we doing, people? CROWD CHEER

0:15:44 > 0:15:48My name is Janey. I am from the East End of Glasgow.

0:15:48 > 0:15:52I come from a place where an Oxo cube is a starter.

0:15:52 > 0:15:58I'm from a place where the Catholics hate the Protestants, the Protestants hate the Catholics,

0:15:58 > 0:16:02occasionally a brown person turned up and took the heat off everybody.

0:16:02 > 0:16:04Good on you.

0:16:04 > 0:16:07Also, just to let you know,

0:16:07 > 0:16:12that as a mother, I've got a child. I know you're thinking, "How did that happen?"

0:16:12 > 0:16:17- I'm 51 and I've reached an age... - Aww!- I know, this skin is beautiful.

0:16:18 > 0:16:22- I love you, Janey! - You're scaring me, Mum! So...

0:16:22 > 0:16:26It's weird, cos my mum's dead. Anyway...

0:16:26 > 0:16:32I've reached a brilliant age at 51. Amazing. When I was 30, I was terrified people wouldn't like me.

0:16:32 > 0:16:36"Hello, look at me. Come to my house for dinner."

0:16:36 > 0:16:42At 40 I'd have you round for tea. Now at 51 I've realised I don't fecking like anybody.

0:16:42 > 0:16:48Get oot ma hoose. I only like five folk. One came oot me, one goes in me and the others are comedians.

0:16:48 > 0:16:50CHEERING

0:16:50 > 0:16:54And most of them have been here tonight, so, yeah,

0:16:54 > 0:17:01my daughter, Ashley, she's 26 and she went to a private school in Glasgow. I'm working class,

0:17:01 > 0:17:08she's middle class. She likes couscous. I thought it was a disease if you touched a Castlemilk boy.

0:17:08 > 0:17:10But...

0:17:10 > 0:17:15Ashley went to a private school. 75 grand's worth of private education.

0:17:15 > 0:17:21That's a lot of heroin to shift. I'm joking. I owned a pub. Same effect, different drug.

0:17:21 > 0:17:28Anyway, Ashley went to a posh school and, as you can tell, I'm not really one of those mothers

0:17:28 > 0:17:30that can bake.

0:17:30 > 0:17:35I'm no' a posh wummin. You know wummin with a scarf for every day?

0:17:35 > 0:17:42You know wummin who bake? I don't understand that. Buy a cake. They sell that shit in the shops.

0:17:42 > 0:17:47Seriously, just buy it. Who's blending flour into sugar? Are you mad?

0:17:47 > 0:17:53You know the kind of woman you and I know has never had sex up against a fridge?

0:17:53 > 0:17:55Come on! We're Scottish!

0:17:55 > 0:18:01We can have sex up against a fridge and fry an omelette.

0:18:01 > 0:18:05"As soon as you've finished, mate, there's some fried goods."

0:18:05 > 0:18:10These women hated me. They used to look at me and go, "I know who you are.

0:18:10 > 0:18:14"You're that little girl's mum. The comedienne."

0:18:14 > 0:18:19I'd say, "Actually, I'm a hooker and your husband owes me a fiver."

0:18:19 > 0:18:21No, I'm not in with them.

0:18:21 > 0:18:27So I love...I love men. When you see females stand-ups, you always assume they hate men. I love men.

0:18:27 > 0:18:31I'll tell you why I love men. Men like five things.

0:18:31 > 0:18:35Their house, their kids, their job, they like sex and sausages.

0:18:35 > 0:18:39And see if you show them a picture of a shark, they're o'er the moon.

0:18:39 > 0:18:44There isnae a man here in this room if you said, "I'm gonnae gie you sex and a sausage

0:18:44 > 0:18:51"and then show you a shark," he'd be like, "I'm gonnae tile your bathroom, bitch!" Totally.

0:18:51 > 0:18:58Men love that stuff. I love the fact that men love sex and sausages and sharks.

0:18:58 > 0:19:02In fact, I think that would be the cue for world peace.

0:19:02 > 0:19:07And if Kofi Annan ever has time off, I will go to the Middle East, stand on a car,

0:19:07 > 0:19:14get a loudspeaker and go, "Everybody calm down! We've got sex and sausages.

0:19:14 > 0:19:17"Clearly not pork. That would be offensive.

0:19:17 > 0:19:24"And then we'll gie you a shark." I tell you, the al-Qaeda would be like that.

0:19:24 > 0:19:28"I'm done wi' this noo." Obviously no' with a Scottish accent.

0:19:29 > 0:19:34"I'm done wi' this. There's a woman gonnae gie us sex and sausages

0:19:34 > 0:19:38"and I'm gonnae find oot what a shark is." Brilliant.

0:19:38 > 0:19:42Women are different. Women approach a relationship like this.

0:19:42 > 0:19:44CLICKING

0:19:44 > 0:19:48"I'm an emotional Rubik's cube. Can you work me out yet?"

0:19:48 > 0:19:53Poor men are like, "Eh, I'll feckin' gie it a go."

0:19:54 > 0:19:58"Are you pullin' the stickers off that?" "No!

0:19:58 > 0:20:04"I just cannae work that oot. Can I just have sex and a sausage, please?"

0:20:06 > 0:20:10I'm gonnae end on this. I'm 50. I thought last year I was pregnant.

0:20:10 > 0:20:17Absolutely terrifying. Nobody wants to be pregnant at 50. I said to Ashley, "I think I'm pregnant."

0:20:17 > 0:20:20She said, "It's no' mine."

0:20:20 > 0:20:23You're a weird child. That's why I love you.

0:20:23 > 0:20:28And then I ran to the chemist and, like every woman in this room,

0:20:28 > 0:20:33the minute you pay £25 for a pregnancy test, you're like, "I better be pregnant noo."

0:20:33 > 0:20:37Came hame, peed on it, gave it to Ashley,

0:20:37 > 0:20:41cos she has to watch it cos I have to have a fight with my man.

0:20:41 > 0:20:45"You! This is your fault." "It's no' ma fault!"

0:20:45 > 0:20:51My husband's got Asperger's. I have sex with a man who shouts, "Is that written in a black pen?"

0:20:51 > 0:20:53So horny.

0:20:53 > 0:20:54Ooh.

0:20:57 > 0:21:03And then...Ashley came out and said, "Mum! It's got two lines on it! You're pregnant!"

0:21:03 > 0:21:07I went, "Oh!" My husband made that noise that all men make.

0:21:07 > 0:21:10He went..."Yay." LAUGHTER

0:21:10 > 0:21:15And then Ashley went, "Ha ha! I'm joking! I drew a line on it."

0:21:15 > 0:21:19My husband went, "Is that in a black pen?"

0:21:20 > 0:21:22Guys...

0:21:24 > 0:21:29Thank you very much. You've been nice. I've been Janey. Yeah!

0:21:29 > 0:21:31CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

0:21:31 > 0:21:36Please go crazy, go wild for this fantastic guy. An Australian man.

0:21:36 > 0:21:42He's brilliant, he's crazy. You're going to love him. Mr Sam Simmons, everyone!

0:21:42 > 0:21:43CHEERING

0:21:43 > 0:21:45Thank you.

0:21:50 > 0:21:52Aw. Hello, ladies and gentlemen.

0:21:52 > 0:21:56Welcome to me doing some things!

0:21:56 > 0:21:58- CHEERING #- Things!- #

0:21:58 > 0:22:02No, you missed the sound cue. Welcome to me doing some things!

0:22:02 > 0:22:04- #- Things!- #

0:22:04 > 0:22:08Things. Don't clap that. It's not good.

0:22:09 > 0:22:14Most of the stories you're about to hear right now are real. Only some of the names, contents, words

0:22:14 > 0:22:19- and actual stories have been changed to make them better. #- Make them better!- #

0:22:19 > 0:22:24- I may or may not say cupboard wank. #- Cupboard wank!- #

0:22:24 > 0:22:31- Before I actually get into it, I've got some rules. #- Rules!- #

0:22:31 > 0:22:34- May I please have some rules music? #- Rules music!- #

0:22:34 > 0:22:37RHYTHMIC BEAT

0:22:38 > 0:22:42CLAPPING ALONG Don't clap! It's not kindy!

0:22:46 > 0:22:53These are the rules for tonight. Rule Number One: no running with scissors at the gig!

0:22:57 > 0:23:01If you run with scissors, you're liable to snip a nipple.

0:23:01 > 0:23:03Snipple!

0:23:05 > 0:23:08Rule Number Two:

0:23:08 > 0:23:14If you're a horticulturalist and brought a rake along tonight, make sure you keep it horizontal.

0:23:15 > 0:23:19You don't want to obscure the gig for people sitting behind you.

0:23:21 > 0:23:24No? All right. Fair enough.

0:23:24 > 0:23:30Rule Number Three: no molesting people at the gig! Unless you know them, then molest away!

0:23:32 > 0:23:38Rule Number Four: if you brought a moth along tonight, make sure he's wearing little tiny shorts.

0:23:38 > 0:23:40Safety first!

0:23:43 > 0:23:47Rule Number Five: there will be no Viennetta! NO VIENNETTA!

0:23:50 > 0:23:52Don't do that!

0:23:55 > 0:23:58Hang on. Turn off the music, man.

0:23:58 > 0:24:01That's a Meximo.

0:24:02 > 0:24:05It's like a Meximo...

0:24:05 > 0:24:09Well, it's... Like an Eskimo/Mexican hybrid.

0:24:09 > 0:24:11It's not PC, a Meximo.

0:24:11 > 0:24:17It's like an Inuit Latino or an Inuino... That's more appropriate.

0:24:19 > 0:24:23That's Clayton. He can't find his backpack anywhere.

0:24:29 > 0:24:34And there's a mystical vortex in the egg compartment in the fridge.

0:24:37 > 0:24:39That's some hard-core toast.

0:24:42 > 0:24:48This is when I went to Sea World on the Gold Coast and accidentally touched a dolphin on the eyeball.

0:24:50 > 0:24:54Then they made me go away from Sea World forever.

0:24:54 > 0:24:55OK.

0:24:55 > 0:24:58- Knock knock!- Who's there?

0:24:58 > 0:25:00- Come on! KNOCK KNOCK!- WHO'S THERE?

0:25:00 > 0:25:04- Fridge!- Fridge who?- Fridge Cat!

0:25:08 > 0:25:12This is me showing off. It's just a really good picture.

0:25:12 > 0:25:14A starfish yelling at a hand.

0:25:16 > 0:25:18No? All right.

0:25:20 > 0:25:22AAAAAAARGH!

0:25:24 > 0:25:26AUDIENCE GROAN

0:25:29 > 0:25:32That's the wrong way to milk a cow.

0:25:32 > 0:25:36No! That would have been the first way! They didn't know to do that.

0:25:42 > 0:25:46That reminds me of... You've got those shops over here. Poundsaver.

0:25:46 > 0:25:49Poundland. Always got stupid names.

0:25:49 > 0:25:55One in Edinburgh's called Thistle Do Nicely. Terrible shop. They sell useless stuff, redundant items.

0:25:55 > 0:26:01Go into one of those shops. They've got crazy names in Australia. Crazy Clinton's Bargain Warehouse.

0:26:01 > 0:26:06Anyway, you go on in. This is fun. You look for the most redundant item you can find.

0:26:06 > 0:26:13I found this - a ceramic reindeer standing on a grassy mound with a thermometer out of the side.

0:26:13 > 0:26:17You know when you need a reindeer thermometer heaps quick? No?

0:26:17 > 0:26:23I wander back four days later and I say, "Excuse me, sir. I'm looking for something in a reindeer.

0:26:23 > 0:26:28"Doesn't have to be a reindeer. Any type of hooved animal.

0:26:28 > 0:26:32"But it has to have some type of measurement of weather attached."

0:26:32 > 0:26:36He lost his mind! "Oh, my God! I've got exactly that item!"

0:26:37 > 0:26:43When he brings it back, just go, "It's kind of like what I was looking for..."

0:26:46 > 0:26:49That's where macaroons come from.

0:26:52 > 0:26:54A Shetland person.

0:26:56 > 0:27:00This is a fun game - wood, wood, not wood. We played when I was a kid.

0:27:00 > 0:27:05Two unrelatable items of wood and one that's not wood.

0:27:05 > 0:27:06Wood!

0:27:06 > 0:27:08Wood!

0:27:08 > 0:27:10Not wood!

0:27:10 > 0:27:15It's fun. Now what's going on here?

0:27:15 > 0:27:21This fella here, he's accidentally drunk an entire bottle of dishwashing detergent. OK?

0:27:21 > 0:27:26And then the natural progression of that is what happens after that.

0:27:26 > 0:27:29He shubbles, shubbles.

0:27:29 > 0:27:31Shubbles.

0:27:35 > 0:27:39CHEERING AND APPLAUSE

0:27:42 > 0:27:45That's Sam Simmons, everyone!

0:27:48 > 0:27:54All that's left to say is thank you to all of tonight's acts. You've been watching Comedy At The Fringe!

0:27:54 > 0:27:56Good night!
