After last week bringing you the best jokes at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe so far, we’ve put together another list of funnies from a host of comics, including fresh-faced youngsters like Edinburgh comedian Chris Weir and Fringe legends like Irish comedian Andrew Maxwell.
From quick one-liners to political satire there is so much to laugh at during the next few weeks at the Fringe, as thousands of people descend on Edinburgh for the August festival season.
9. Andrew Maxwell
Irish comedian Andrew Maxwell is performing his latest Fringe show, The Bare Maximum, this year. In it he lampooned former Prime Minister Liz Truss for losing her seat at the recent General Election. Adding: “I've been in showbusiness for 30 years and I didn't know you could get booed on to the stage.” Andrew Maxwell: The Bare Maximum, at Just The Tonic Nucleus, 5.40pm, until August 25, expect 12th. | Unavoidable PR Photo: Piers Alladyce
