I was in Edinburgh this week and two of the funniest shows I saw were Key 103's Justin Moorhouse and Comedy Store regular Mick Ferry. If you can't see them at the Fringe, see them locally. Very funny. With this kind of backdrop, I predict Media City will become a real centre of excellence for comedy. So it's official - northerners are funnier than southerners. Hurrah.
