Al broadcasts live from Edinburgh with music performances from the Doug Anthony All Stars and chat with Rodney Bewes, Henning Wehn, Mary Lynn Rajskub and Matt Forde.

Al is live from Edinburgh with music performances throughout the show from Australian musical comedy mavericks The Doug Anthony All Stars, returning after they first took the Festival by storm nearly thirty years ago. He will also be joined by Rodney Bewes, as the Likely Lad returns to the Fringe with stories of his career on and off stage. Self-styled German Comedy Ambassador Henning Wehn tells us why Westphalia Is Not An Option and we spend 24 Hours with Mary Lynn Rajskub as she relives her pivotal role as Chloe O'Brien alongside Kiefer Sutherland and remembers the late Garry Shandling, with whom she performed in The Larry Sanders Show. Plus comedian, interviewer and former political advisor Matt Forde tells us about his perfect weekend and his new topical show It's My Political Party (and I'll Cry If I Want to).
