James Veitch - Dot Con

Comedy / Stand Up

Please note: the Sat 17 March 16:30 session is in Studio 7 and all other sessions are in Le Cascadeur

Suspicious emails, unclaimed bonds, Nigerian princes; standard procedure is to delete on sight. What if you replied? UK comedian, bestselling author and self-professed scamp James Veitch has perfected the art of scamming the scammer and brilliantly plays the internet imposters at their own game.

Responsible for the fastest ever TED Talk to reach over two million views in the history of TED, James Veitch delivers unashamedly nerdy, creative and cheeky comedy. A former Apple Store Genius, Veitch's comedy is hi-tech -- picking apart, parodying (and pranking) the technological world we all live in.

'Tears-down-the-face funny' ★★★★ Sunday Herald
'A wicked sense of humour... I laughed my ass off.' The New York Times
'Gleefully, brazenly cheeky' ★★★★ The Scotsman
