Geoff Norcott on why he's a right wing, pro-Leave comedian
How did a working class boy from a housing estate in south London grow up to vote Tory – and then take his one-man show and right wing political views to the Edinburgh Fringe? In this episode we catch up with English teacher-turned-comedian Geoff Norcott, who explains how trying to put a positive slant on Maggie Thatcher is received by the liberal lefties, how he deals with hecklers, why he voted LEAVE in the EU referendum. He also explains how optimism can work wonders and then moves on to the important issues – such as bringing back cooked breakfasts on Saturday mornings.
