Newbie Ed Patrick doesn't start his set that well, with a predicatble Rohypnol gag – but it soon emerges this is simply an appetiser for a much stronger joke. That tendsd to be typical of his act, some quite tired material, usually puns unworthy even of a groan, cheek-by-jowl with some more inspired stuff.

But he has an appealing vibrancy to his delivery and a cheeky, wide smile to accompany every gag, which covered some of the cracks in the material – but not all.
