Description
See Some Laugh Live In London Saturday 9th September. Tickets here: https://www.kingsplace.co.uk/whats-on/words/some-laugh/This week Stu and Marc are joined in Edinburgh by “Absolutely” and Scot Squad star Jack Docherty. After a 25-year break from the Fringe, Jack compares the modern festival to the halcyon days of the 1980’s, discusses his time presenting both his own US-style chat show (interviewing the likes of David Bowie & The Spice Girls) and the BAFTAs (where a risky opening joke had the star-studded audience turn on him immediately). With a wrap sheet as long as your arm, the writer/actor/presenter/producer Docherty rhymes off plenty of great showbiz stories, chats writing on the likes of Spitting Image and Vic & Bob, and how he’s found a return to performing, both at the Fringe and on BBC Scotland’s Scot Squad (alongside a certain Mr McPherson).A video version of this podcast is available on YouTube, where you can subscribe for all future episodes: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCxeugCQL5zyVhd7pCEAi9GAWe're now on Patreon!
