Hustle and bustle are the buzz words of what has been a fantastic week for everyone involved in the show. Today was no different from the past few days but a sense of calm was definitely in the air as we all settled into our routines and got to know each other just a little bit better.

We have been incredibly lucky weather wise, which of course puts everyone in a better mood, but you can't help but smile when your morning is filled with the fantastic singing group 4 poofs and a piano warming up in the green room. Everyone was walking around with an added skip in their step as the harmonies filled our ears.

Other guests such as Raymond Mearns, Tom Price, Martin Mor and the cast of sketch show Men of War started to arrive slowly and steadily through out the morning. Coffees were flowing and the audience were in fine form, cheering loudly every time a guest came on or off the stage. Susan Calman ran around talking to the audience members about where they were from and what special power they had, which resulted in some hilarious radio.

Spiritualist comedian Ian D Montford had all of us in stitches when he sat down on the couch to do one of his famous readings with Fred. Not only did Ian reveal things about Fred that Fred already knew, but he also revealed the very amusing if not controversial news that Fred had a half brother which made the audience roar with laughter just from the sheer look of confusion on Fred's face... because of course it wasn't true.

Incredibly funny comedian, Neil Delamere took to the couch and was exactly as reviews described, "A lean mean comedy machine" dishing out gag after gag. He literally had the audience in tears of laughter. As did Guy Pratt who tempted the audience with stories of various superstars he has worked with through his career. Star of "Never mind the buzzcocks" Phill Jupitus also joined Fred on the couch to talk about both his shows which have taken the Fringe by storm "Stand down" and the "Phill Jupitus Quartet - Made Up"

Today's show was literally action packed with laughter and amazing guests. All of us behind the scenes felt just a touch of sadness that the week had flown by so quickly. Next week brings more amazing guests, more coffee and hopefully more sunshine.

Bring it on ...We're ready for you.
