Comedy preview: Pappy’s Last Show Ever, The Stand

EDINBURGH Fringe favourites Matthew Crosby, Ben Clark and Thomas Parry are calling a day on their sketch troupe Pappy’s. Or are they?

The 2012 Foster’s Edinburgh Comedy Award nominees bring their Last Show Ever, a parade of intertwining sketches, songs, silliness and nostalgia, to The Stand on Wednesday.

After appearances on Channel 4, Radio 4 and BBC3 as well as five hit Fringe shows, three national tours and two award-winning podcasts are they finally throwing in the towel? Only time will tell.
