It’s approaching the end of the second week of the Edinburgh Festival Fringe and the reviews have been continuing to pour in.
With the physical programme containing over 3,350 shows across 265 venues (with plenty more added after the print deadline), it can be a daunting task to work out what exactly you are going to see.
At The Scotsman we review hundreds of shows every year, with the best receiving a sought-after four or five star rating.
Several of those still have ticket availability for this weekend (August 15-17) so you can go and see what all the fuss is all about (bad luck if you wanted to see the likes of Cat Cohen, Josie Long, Bebe Cave, Sam Nicoresti or Helen Bauer - they are completely sold out after earning four or five star reviews from our critics).
Here are 17 four star comedy shows our team of critics would recommend you see this weekend - and that still have ticket availability at time of writing.
You can book them all at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe website here.
17. Ben Pope: The Cut
Youc an still catch Ben Pope's eye-opening show at Assembly George Square each afternoon at 5.05pm between now and August 24. What we said: "It’s just a beautifully constructed and communicated slice of life that also happens to be funny all the way through." | Contributed
