The Independent Recommends: Comedy - Sean Meo
Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.HE MAY never dazzle audiences with earth-shattering originality, but Sean Meo is a very effective old-fashioned observational comedian who won the 1997 Time Out Comedy Award. He peddles some pretty neat quickfire gags: "It's always `Shark Week' on the Discovery Channel. The jelly fish don't get a look-in. Must have shit agents." Alongside Boothby Graffoe, Martin Coyote and Steve Gribbin, he is part of the Cutting Edge team tonight.

The performers in the sketch show Stay Alive Pepi (above) come highly recommended by Bob Mortimer, no less, who called them "the funniest thing I've seen in years". The trio play characters such as the Welsh Pimps, redundant miners who find that their high moral standards limit them somewhat in their new field of prostitution.
