Ian Smith: Foot Spa Half Empty
Two-time Edinburgh Comedy Award nominee Ian Smith (co-host of the Northern News podcast) returns with a new show about stress, love, and buying a magic spell off Amazon.
As seen on Live at the Apollo, Have I Got News For You and The Stand Up Sketch Show, and heard on The News Quiz, The Unbelievable Truth, Just A Minute and his own Radio 4 series, Ian Smith is Stressed.
His last show Crushing was shortlisted for the (ISH) Edinburgh Comedy Award, a Chortle Best Show nominee, and named one of the Guardian’s Top 10 Comedy Shows of 2023.
