Episode 1
Kirsty Wark heads out into the night to see how the Fringe has changed since unlocking, and comedian Jamie MacDonald reaches for the skies as he learns to be a fitness instructor. Actor and comedian Rachel Jackson is skint, single and on a mission to enjoy a day at the Fringe on a budget, while back in the studio Rosco McClelland brings us the weird and the wonderful from the Fring.
There is stand-up from Gary Little and Shaparak Khorsandi, and Mark cannot resist catching up with Shaparak to talk about his favourite thing in the world - the 90s.
Episode 2
This episode, Mark meets Jack Docherty to talk about his love of the Fringe and his new one-man play that might just be a true story. Rachel Jackson is still skint and single, so she is off to meet the African Groove Machine to see if learning to dance will improve her chances in love.
Jamie MacDonald talks to Queenz - The Show With Balls! to see what he misses out on at a drag show as a blind audience member - he gets right into the spirit of things. Joe Thomas from The Inbetweeners is starting a career in stand up comedy, so Mark goes down to the gardens to teach him a thing or two about heckling, and Jay Lafferty hosts Late'ish'n'Live, this Fringe's version of the most notorious night of all. With performances from Stephen Buchanan and Buff and Sheen.

Award-winning comedian Mark Nelson and his star team bring you the best of the Edinburgh Fringe 2021.

Allegiance
Allegiance follows on identity and belonging, policing and politics, and finding truth within the heart of a flawed justice system. Sabrina Sohal is a star rookie police officer who must grapple with the limits of the justice system as she fights to exonerate her politician father Ajeet Sohal. Sohal serves her diverse hometown of Surrey alongside Vince Brambilla, a veteran training officer who sees her potential but doesn't always agree with her forward-thinking methods. Allegiance is the story of a young woman caught between her allegiance to her flag, to her badge, and to her family.
The Rookie
The Rookie is inspired by a true story. John Nolan is the oldest rookie in the LAPD. At an age where most are at the peak of their career, Nolan cast aside his comfortable, small town life and moved to L.A. to pursue his dream of being a cop. Now, surrounded by rookies twenty years his junior, Nolan must navigate the dangerous, humorous and unpredictable world of a "young" cop, determined to make his second shot at life count.
Pawn Stars
Long before banks, ATMS and check-cashing services, there were pawn shops. Pawning was the leading form of consumer credit in the United States until the 1950s, and pawn shops are still helping everyday people make ends meet. Pawn Stars takes you inside the colorful world of the pawn business. At the Gold & Silver Pawn Shop on the outskirts of Las Vegas, three generations of the Harrison family - grandfather Richard, son Rick and grandson Corey - jointly run the family business, and there's clashing and camaraderie every step of the way. The three men use their sharp eyes and skills to assess the value of items from the commonplace to the truly historic, including a 16th-century samurai sword, a Super Bowl ring, a Picasso painting and a 17th-century stay of execution. It's up to them to determine what's real and what's fake, as they reveal the often surprising answer to the questions on everyone's mind, "What's the story behind it?" and "What's it worth?"
