His inimitable diary from last year shall not be repeated this year by order of Lothian and Borders Police, the Festival organisers and several doctors. He will, however, be popping up from time to time to give us his hot tips and top gossip from the festival. After many trips round the course, Fergie reckons he knows a thing or two about getting the most out of the Festival Fringe.
Some shows are free, many are half price.
Fergie agrees with the chief steward of the Fringe, Paul Gudgin, that with hundreds of shows in the space of three weeks it's as difficult to pick a winner as it is at the Grand National. So don't be afraid to take a risk. All rights reserved.
