Comedian and presenter Nish Kumar is set to host a special Comic Relief Live show at the Edinburgh Fringe next month.
The host of BBC Two’s The Mash Report, will be joined by some of the UK’s most exciting comedy talent for an exclusive one night only stand up gig for Comic Relief at the Assembly Music Hall at 6.30pm on Monday 19th August.
Sofie Hagen is to follow the Edinburgh run of her latest show with a UK tour.
The Bumswing explores a frankly disheartening new piece of information that Sofie learned from her therapist, which has forced her to review the way she performs stand-up. Sofie talks about memory: What she remembers (not a lot), what she wishes she remembered (a lot) and what she wishes she could forget (also a lot). It’s a hilarious swing in a different direction for a comic who is used to tackling serious issues with her shows.
Superstar stand-up Jerry Seinfeld has performed an intimate suprise show at the Soho Theatre.
The gig was a warm up for his upcoming four shows at the Eventim Apollo – two on July 12, two on July 13.
These are his first shows in the capital since he appeared at the 02 Arena in 2011.

Roisin Conaty’s award winning GameFace returns for a second series. Conaty stars as Marcella, an aspiring actress with a chaotic life and big dreams. We find her on the brink of yet another driving test and with her acting career at a new, humiliating, low. As her friends and family move on with their lives and relationships, she can’t ignore the sinking feeling she’s being left behind… but with characteristic chutzpah she’s determined to turn her luck around.
The first images and a trailer have been released to promote new Sky comedy Brassic. The series stars Joe Gilgun, Michelle Keegan, Ruth Sheen, Tim Key (pictured looking daft) and Dominic West (pictured looking serious) and will air on Sky One and NOW TV from 22nd August.
The title comes from the work brassic, which is slang, coming from boracic lint, rhyming with skint.
