Join Alex and Ben - aka The Pin - in their weird twist on the double-act sketch show

Loveable idiots Alex and Ben deconstruct a world of oddness with their weird twist on the sketch show. From September 2016.

The Pin are out to evolve - which means new features (and new total misunderstandings about how existence works).

Strap in for a 15-minute delve into a world of oddness performed in front of a live studio audience.

The Pin are an award-winning comedy duo, and legends of Edinburgh festival. They deconstruct the sketch form, in a show that exists somewhere between razor-sharp smartness and utterly joyous silliness.
