Mark Watson: Search

Mark Watson's 12-year-old son has just got a phone. His 70-year-old dad has been through the most frightening experience of his life. Both a dad and a kid himself, around the midpoint of his life, the Taskmaster star and multiple award-winner - now also famous as one-third of YouTube cult sensation No More Jockeys - returns.

He'll consider the search for meaning that we're all on, with or without Google. There'll be a lot of jokes, and a show that's different every night.

★★★★★ 'A genius-level comic doing what he does best... it's magical to watch and just so funny' - Time Out Melbourne

★★★★★ 'Quite unlike anything else I've seen in almost 20 years of covering the Fringe...witty, warm, perfectly judged' - Telegraph

★★★★ ½ 'An hour or two of our limited span on Earth in his uplifting, witty company is time excellently spent' - Chortle

★★★★ 'A master at letting us in on his vulnerability' - The Times

★★★★ 'This is a stand-up operating at the very top of his game' - Independent
