Description
The ultimate bird-based comedy-quiz. Birds come in all shapes and sizes, from cute little ducklings, to big feathery jerks like geese. But what do they weigh? It's time to find out. I’ll show you some birds, you’ll guess how heavy they are. Score points, get prizes, eat chocolate eggs, win £250... maybe. It’s a bit like Who Wants To Be A Millionaire but all the questions are about birds and the prize is £999,750 smaller. Sorry about that. Come and guess the weight of some birds before the RSPB have me killed.Please note that while all media gallery content is provided by verified members of the event, the Edinburgh Festival Fringe Society does not review or approve this content before it is posted.

You don't need to know anything about birds, just be ready for some good fun and laughs as you try to earn points, win eggs and money (maybe)!

I was at the show today and as someone who is avidly not a twitcher, I felt at one with birds and birdkind. This is genuinely the best thing I have seen at fringe and i would thoroughly recommend anyone with a competitive spirit or a love for good comedy to go. Host was excellent, My only
complaint was that it ended too soon, I had more guessing in me. 5 Stars, A must see show!

Very silly and lots of fun. Such a simple idea, and it worked so well. Didn’t stop laughing.

This show has no right being as good as it is! Weight guessing, how hard can that be right?WRONG! Birds apparently don't follow the logical rules of physics!! Absolute laugh and John is such a great comedian and host for the show!
Also, we won and got a tenner!!

Brilliant fun. It's actually just like you think it will be but better. Turns out I couldn't be trusted to buy a frozen chicken now

Great premise mixes with some really fun facts and audience interaction. This was a sleep hit for me this year, highly recommended.
