FREDDY SYBORN: A Good Bullet: Comedy, Violence and All the Terrible Things That Make Us Laugh

Event information

Freddy Syborn co-writes the record-breaking BBC 3 sitcom, Bad Education. He's also co-written a Sky Little Cracker, contributed sketches to Psychobitches, and written jokes for TV shows including Live at the Apollo, Never Mind the Buzzcocks, Stand Up For The Week and Big Brother's Big Mouth.
​
'Doctor, doctor, what do you call a book about comedy that tries to be funny, argumentative, wide-ranging, silly, weirdly personal and fairly well-researched?' 'Doomed to failure.'

A Good Bullet will have a crack at asking why and how jokes commit violence. Why and how they amuse us with things that otherwise cause us anxiety and pain. Why and how sex, war, history, death, insecurity, hatred and loss - all the good stuff - make people laugh
