The sun sets over our last evening at the Fringe

The winner of the Fosters Comedy Award Adam Riches on stage for BBC Three's live show

The autographs board from our Green Room, with The Hoff centre stage

The Hoff sings a duet with Scott Mills live on Radio 1

Also at the cabaret was a man who could do many a thing with a hoop

Mark Watson and Rhod Gilbert took part in a terrific New Comedy Award masterclass


On the opening night, a boy braved the rain

As did one of our volunteers

And a man in an orange jacket

Backstage, The Hoff emerged from his hour at the Fun and Filth Cabaret

Some of the nation's finest comedians have performed in the last fortnight, including Jason Byrne

David Mitchell

Arthur Smith and Phill Jupitus

Richard Herring, also alongside Arthur

Frisky and Mannish

Sam Simmons

Scottish Slam Poetry Champion Young Dawkins hosted a brilliant Poetry Slam

Bands and street performers provided regular night-time entertainment

Ricky Gervais and Warwick Davis arrived in town to talk about Life's Too Short

Comedy School headmaster Arthur Smith got stuck into laughter yoga

And a bit of discipline

Richard Herring arrived to present an edition of Richard Herring's Objective

And Nicholas Parsons took charge of two more editions of Just a Minute

Back at the Radio Cabaret, Dappy popped Greg James' balloons

And shared a laugh with Nick Grimshaw

Whilst dancers brought the show to a close
