Edinburgh preview 35,000ft up

One Edinburgh comedy show is staging an unusual preview - 35,000ft in the air.

Passengers aboard a Luton to Edinburgh flight later this month will get a free look at the The Ubersausage improvised storytelling show FairLy Tales.

They will be treated to a story based on a word chosen at random from the in-flight magazine on the 11.25am EasyJet flight on July 29.

Ubersausage's Ciaran Murtagh said: "We've been invited to perform eight minutes somewhere over Durham - that's the length of time we're allowed to take ourseatbelts off!"

The show will be performed at the Fringe's CO2 venue from August 1 to 25.
