Comedian and US TV host Craig Ferguson is returning to the Edinburgh Fringe this year, for what will be his first stand-up show in the UK for 25 years.
He'll be performing a one-off show called Hobo Fabulous at the Edinburgh Playhouse.
The Glasgow-born performer was the host of The Late Late Show for ten years before moving on to other projects in 2014.
He returned to the Fringe in 2017 to record his radio show but this will be his first dedicated stand-up performance.
