This show is a true car-crash of a classic, a madcap dash through the world of dodgy TV,  driven furiously by Castagnola’s relentlessly funny Donny Donkins. the slot is an early one, but its a perfect way to put a smile on your face at the start of a day at the fringe. The show itself is a blend of Donny’s chit-chat, dodgy game-shows, hilarious guests & slices of pre-recorded footage, including a mini-documentary made at the funeral of Maggie Thatcher. The audience was often in stiches & I reckon this is probably the best fiver spent you’ll spend all festival! FOUR STARS
