James thrilled to beer back
A COMEDIAN due to appear at this year's Fringe has said he'll know when he's arrived – because of the strong smell of beer.
James Dowdeswell said he was looking forward to playing the event, but was incredibly nervous at the prospect, despite having appeared several years in a row.
He said: "The Edinburgh Festival is the most stressful yet exciting month of the year, it's amazing.
"As soon as you get off the train there's that smell that smell of Edinburgh – it's the hops of the brewery. It's like the city has got subliminal message 'keep drinking – we're making more'. You just know it's a party town."
