Still unsafe.
The 2026 production was a substantial evolution of the live format: four comedians, audience-submitted topics, competitive roast rounds and a room that decided the winner.

Best Format Show
at the Edinburgh Fringe.
The recognition marked the 12th annual edition of a format that began at the Fringe in 2014.
