Gareth Richards at Chortle's Fast Fringe

Singing a hymn to his own show

Comedian Gareth Richards has written a hymn to try to persuade people to come to his Edinburgh show.

The comic said he learned the effectiveness of hymns from his days as a church-goer. ’That’s how you believe things in church,’ he said. ‘You sing them over and over again.’

His Fringe show Idiot Wind is at Whistlebinkies at 2:45pm daily.

Here’s the song, as performed at Chortle's Fast Fringe.
