COMEDIAN Tim Vine remembers the exact moment that his journey into comedy started.
Vine is set to play a number of dates during his tour of Scotland which will feature songs as well as the one-liners he’s become known for.Scotland holds a special place in Vine’s heart and, although he’s not performing at this year’s Fringe, he has twice picked up the best joke award and credits it as being a key turning point in his career.
“I’ve been on a lot of tours since around 2003. When you get that first one that’s an hour I can’t underly how important that is”, he explains.“That’s a considerable amount of time because if you stand in front of a few hundred people, that’s a long time if they don’t like you.At the Edinburgh Fringe, his show Tim Vine Fiasco led to the Newcomer Award in 1995 although he says it was a “real team effort” as there were four others with him on stage.“You’re doing a show every day.
