    Paul Merton at Edinburgh International Book Festival (edbookfest)
    Not Always Clowning Around
    One of the most intelligent and likeable comics in the land, Paul Merton has had his fair share of darkness and tragedy.

His memoir Only When I Laugh details those unforgettable highs and lows and in this event, recorded live at Edinburgh International Book Festival, he talks to journalist Ruth Wishart about it.
