Foil, Arms and Hog return with another hour of gloriously silly sketch fun, but this year there's far more audience interaction, which creates an overall feeling of camaraderie.
The night starts with a musical introduction from the audience orchestrated by the trio and what proceeds is an hour of masterful comedy acting and enormously silly comic ideas played out with style and panache by these comedy veterans.
Particular highlights included the weirdly medically themed game of musical chairs, the equal opportunities spy organisation that got a Caucasian man to play an African infiltrator (with an exceptional portrayal of a stereotypical sassy black woman) and the audience being part of a living room.
These guys certainly know how to play a room and to make a riotous hour of fun. I'll definitely be coming back next year to see what new fun they'll be bringing.
