Since he was a teenager Daniel Sloss has enjoyed the life of a comedian – months away from home, boozy late nights, missed mornings, lazy afternoons.
But the 32-year-old Edinburgh-based funnyman became a dad for the first time last year and his priorities have changed.
For a start rather than staying up until 4am drinking with his mates when he was doing his 16-date off Broadway show this month - he went back to the hotel to see his young family.

“Bardo, False Chronicle of a Handful of Truths,” and it looks positively trippy.Backed by The Beatles’ “I Am the Walrus,” the trailer is completely dialogue-free and instead offers up a bevy of images from the film, which by most accounts is a semi-autobiographical story from the “Birdman” and “The Revenant” director in the vein of “8 1/2.”Described as an “epic, visually stunning and immersive experience” the story follows Silverio (Daniel Giménez Cacho), a renowned Mexican journalist and documentary filmmaker living in Los Angeles, who, after being named the recipient of a prestigious international award, is compelled to return to his native country, unaware that this simple trip will push him to an existential limit.
