Tony Law has been a cult comic for too long. It's about time he broke big. And maybe this is his year. He picked up an Edinburgh Comedy Award nomination a few years back and is probably better and more focussed than ever now. The self-appointed "maverick truth slinger of ridiculousness for the people" is zany, madcap, whimsical, all those things, but most importantly, truly funny from tee to green. It's all nonsense of course, but brilliant nonsense.

When people get and believe information from Fox News.

4. What is the most stupid thing you have ever done?
Get in line!!!
5. What has surprised you the most during your career in comedy?
How I'm not super huge yet. It's unbelievable I'm not widely known as the best at it.
