Nope not Mr Gwyneth Paltrow – as he pointed out himself in the title of his debut Edinburgh Fringe show last August, No Not That One – this one’s a comedian and an accomplished one at that. Since being runner up in comedy website Chortle’s Student Comedian of the Year in 2006 and a finalist in the Amused Moose awards the following year he’s made steady progress with his amiable mix of observations and anecdotes. There are many handsome telly-genic, twenty-something comics about these days but this one’s a keeper.
