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 £10,000... maybe. It’s a bit like Who Wants To Be A Millionaire but all the questions are about birds and the prize is a scratch card. Sorry about that.

Have you ever been on the edge, not sure whether you’ll fall or fly? break:out is a darkly funny and deeply personal queer comedy that dives into the space between breaking down and breaking free. It’s the story of a boy who once dreamed of being on stage, only to have those dreams crushed by a family who didn’t understand him. Pushed into football and conformity, he spent years hiding his true self, growing more withdrawn and shy. But after a near-tragic encounter on a bridge, his life took an unexpected turn.

Tom Short's "Nothing Special" is a darkly comedic deconstruction of the stand-up comedy form itself. By dissecting the very essence of the genre, Tom explores the absurdity of performing stand-up in a world saturated with content.

In "Nothing Special," Tom Short doesn't just perform stand-up; he dissects it. By examining the tropes and clichés of the genre, he reveals the underlying emptiness of the stand-up comedian's quest for validation and applaus...
