Review by Steve Bennett

As a one-time Evening Standard comedy critic, Pye could easily have set himself up for a pasting from rivals in both journalism and comedy when he took to the stand-up stage.

Luckily, though, this shaggy-haired comic's casually funny stage persona and keenly-observed and knowing routine combine in a near-perfect set, liberally sprinkled with comedy gems.

He was a rising star, for sure, but is currently concentrating on writing rather than stand-up
