About this show

Iain Connell – the face of Sharp Sand, the tall one out of Burnistoun, the man who exposed the lies of The Apple Puncher, the man who loves giving prices and the man who taught the world how to say Davey – returns to the live stage to begin sprinkling the stupid seeds of his brand-new stand-up show. Appearing at the Fringe for the first time since whenever he was there last, Big Stretch swoops into to Edinburgh for one night only to deliver comedy straight out of his mad dish. Prepare to be something'd.
