Davina Bentley on dating in your 40s
Extract from her Edinburgh Fringe show
Stand-up Davina Bentley talks about dating a man with terrible dress sense – think fedoras and unironic Hawaiian shirts– in this extract from her Edinburgh Fringe show.
She also talks about the fact that now she’s in her 40s, almost every man who asks her out practises ‘ethical non-monogamy’.
And teases a story about agreeing to take part in a threesome.. though the full routine is reserved for her show Dancing While Old, on at Pleasance Courtyard at 17:30 during the festival.
Chortle's Fast Fringe is on at Pleasance Dome at 18:30 daily. Tickets here.
Filming by NextUp, which is streaming shows to subscribers this Fringe. Sign up here.
