    - Colin & Fergus at the Pleasance
  • My parents are from Glasgow which means they're incredibly hard, but I was never smacked as a child... well maybe one or two grams to get me to sleep at night
    - Susan Murray at the Underbelly
  • Is it fair to say that there'd be less litter in Britain if blind people were given pointed sticks?
    - Adam Bloom at the Pleasance
  • My mum and dad are Scottish but they moved down to Wolverhampton when I was two, cause they wanted me to sound like a tw*t
    - Susan Murray at the Underbelly

    - Addy Van-Der-Borgh at the Assembly Rooms
  • I saw that show, 50 Things To Do Before You Die. I would have thought the obvious one was 'Shout For Help'

    - Steven Alan Green at C34
  • It's easy to distract fat people. It's a piece of cake
    - Chris Addison at the Pleasance
  • If you're being chased by a police dog, try not to go through a tunnel, then on to a little seesaw, then jump through a hoop of fire. They're trained for that
