FRESH from this year’s Edinburgh Fringe and with a slew of five star reviews, one of the UK’s favourite TV household names returns to the stage with his brand new and most personal show.

Ed Byrne can be seen at the Electric Palace in Bridport on Saturday, September 9.

Promoters say: "Come and join one of our leading laugh specialists as he tests that formula by mining the most tragic event in his life for laughs."

From the quote attributed to Mark Twain, humour is defined as Tragedy Plus Time.

With his TV career now in its third decade, Ed has regularly appeared on the likes of QI, Mock The Week, Alan Davies As Yet Untitled, and Live At The Apollo.

With legions of fans both in the UK and abroad, Ed remains the observational stand-up to see.
