Sarah Millican tells the truth. About her divorce, about fancying gorillas and about being thrown off the Asda Shuttlebus. It was great to have Sarah back with what will be her first Edinburgh show. She started just a few years ago (about when Cal, Al and Pete also set out) but she has rocketed through the comedy ranks and is now surely on the verge of stardom, or at least on the verge of sortofheardofher,isn'tsheonradio4,guestonbuzzcocksdom. As this is her first major show, this brilliant hour can take in all Sarah's best material. But it still feels like a complete themed show - great writing and a woman so adictively funny that we even laughed when was explaining her editing technique.
Also on the night we had 3 lads up from York, regular LLC chum James Christopher who this week put aside story telling, satire, knob gags and defiently gave us a plethora of puns, 2 of which were good enough to stay in his normal set. (Puns eh? We groan but we love 'em really.) Fellow Yorkies Paul Schmitza and Lee Morris also bumped up the laugh quota for the night.
