Paul Chowdhry: Family-Friendly Comedian

Presented By: Avalon

27 – 27 Aug 2023

21:40

Following a complete sell-out, extended national tour, star of global hit Live Innit, Taskmaster and the first British-Asian stand-up to sell-out London's Wembley Arena returns to Edinburgh for the first time in almost 10 years!

Paul is out to save his reputation and become a family friendly staple – like Ant & Dec (but not the one that drinks and drives).

'The greatest British-Asian comedian of all time' Eastern Eye

'It's a rare and joyous thing to see a stand up so vibrant and imperiously on top of his game' ★★★★★ Mail on Sunday

Funny on clips on insta, but in the (Scottish) room the whole show schtick of London-centric Asian in-jokes just felt harsh and disjointed. Two white folks got picked out and pastiched as whining racist cockney-w*nkers, even though their (Scottish) location and presence at this show makes that inaccurate (and cringey)on both counts. Maybe its all payback for It Ain't Half Hot, Mum - in which case, yeah, cheers that was really entertaining, thanks, but you got the wrong people. We're the converted, innit.
