大象传媒 New Comedy Award winner inspired by living with refugee
The winner of the 大象传媒 New Comedy Award 2018, Stephen Buchanan, says the refugee his "amazing" mum took in inspired his work.
Speaking to 大象传媒 Radio 5 Live at the Edinburgh Festival, he said "it's amazing just to speak to him and see what his experiences have been."
He told Nihal Arthanayake: "None of the jokes are actually about him. I use my observations around living with him."
