One of the hardest working comics at the fringe must be Bec Hill. She has her own show, a kid’s show and also working a late night cabaret show as well. It is a wonder she survives each Edinburgh.

Aussie Ms Hill is a thoroughly engaging and smiley comic, someone who always injects energy and happiness into the room with each of her performances.

The theme of this year’s offering is Regrets. She initially claims to having only one regret but as the show progress maybe this is not the case. Internet polling and research gave her a multitude of topics to ruminate on and as she always does finds the funny side of situations.

As always in her shows there is an element of audience interaction and involvement, but don’t hesitate to get involved it is never painful.

And then for me is her tour de force. Bec is the absolute master of the flip chart and the examples she uses this year are amongst her very best work. For me this section is worth the admission money alone, especially the finale.
