Jim Smith ; The Hills Have Ayes, New Town Theatre, Edinburgh Festival Fringe

 ales from a farming life, with punchlines.  Perthshire's Smith wants the 'City Slickers' to understand more about the 'Teuchters', and vice versa.  So there are plenty of jokes about farming, and family life on the farm, often at his own expense.  And a few explanations of the Teuchter terminology along the way.  He's good at impressionsd and accents, and his Andy Murray doing an advert for potatoes was lovely.  It's all amiable stuff, funny without ever becoming hilarious, but enjoyable nonetheless.


Jim Smith's run at the Fringe has now ended.
