Foil, Arms and Hog

As it turns out the stereotype is totally true: all Irish people are funny. If you don’t believe me, then you clearly haven’t seen Foil, Arms and Hog (yes, all three of them). Playing to a packed crowd, it took all of 30 seconds to kick start the first barrels of laughter. Performing their last show of the fringe, they went out with a high as they blazed through their ever-more ridiculous sketches.

Avoiding most stereotypes like drinking, potatoes and leprechauns, a sketch involving dysfunctional vicars was perhaps a bit too easy. However there wasn’t one joke I didn’t laugh at. If only TV sketch shows were this funny. Absolutely hilarious!
