That the now primarily web-based Time Out then shared my despair at the end of the essentially analogue bus is an irony we can all enjoy.

Until recently, there were a fair few clips of me doing comedy on You Tube but these were taken down recently in order to force you all into buying my DVD instead. It is only a fiver at Amazon, where it has a bunch of five star reviews, and probably elsewhere too. Damned if I can get the link to work so just google “Simon Evans DVD”!

In the meantime, here is a clip of me doing comedy at the Edinburgh Gala of 2010. This is still my favourite joke.
