The funniest standup I’ve ever seen …
Celeste Dring: John Kearns testing out his sweet shop routine in a back room in Croydon. A real feat of controlled chaos. At one point, he was just lying face down shouting: “Is this what we all came out for?”
The funniest heckle I’ve ever had …
Freya Parker: We’ve had the classic “drunk-man-slow-clap” in the middle of our set. “Hey mister, you didn’t leave us your number!”
The funniest sketch I’ve ever seen …
CD: The one from Big Train where Mark Heap is all dewy-eyed optimistic about meeting his birth mother, but she turns out to be this awful troll with a giant tongue. We’ve all been there!
The funniest word …
FP: Egg
The funniest hairstyle I’ve ever had …
FP: I regularly cut my own hair after a gin. As the old saying goes: “Different lengths of hair makes the boys stop and stare!”
The funniest item of clothing I’ve ever owned …
FP: I have a made-to-measure bear outfit.
The funniest meal I’ve ever eaten …
CD: Any sort of buffet makes me laugh. People go mad, piling up food like they’ve got nothing to lose. At someone’s birthday once, this woman went so overboard she was sick and had to go home.
The funniest number …
CD: The world is screaming 69 but it’s actually 8. We rely on 8 a lot. Thanks, 8!
Lazy Susan: Forgive Me, Mother! is at Assembly George Square Theatre, Edinburgh, to 27 August
