Award-winning comedian Samantha Day is back with a new comedy game show that treats Britain's most trivial problems with the seriousness that they deserve. It's always Whine O'Clock in Britain. The weather is too hot. Or too cold or too rainy. Sometimes it gets so bad that we have to go on holiday to complain about another country. And the people in Britain are awful. Driving too slowly, making grammatical errors and joking about the wrong things. Britain has never been so divided. Until now. 'Just brilliant' (Arthur Smith).

About the show

Samantha Day returns with a new comedy game show that treats Britain's most trivial problems with the seriousness they deserve. It's always Whine O'Clock in Britain — the weather is too hot, or too cold, or too rainy. Sometimes it gets so bad that we have to go on holiday to complain about another country. And the people in Britain are awful: driving too slowly, making grammatical errors and joking about the wrong things. Britain has never been so divided. Until now. A satirical free Fringe show for audiences aged 18 and over.

Why see this show?

A free comedy game show that takes Britain's pettiest grievances entirely seriously — warmly sardonic and sharply observed. If you've ever complained about the weather or a minor grammatical error, this is for you.
