Mixed Blessings

Mrs Beany and Mr Brian Glutton celebrate 25 years of marriage today. Beany is a clown and Brian an "alternative" stand up comedian.


In the mid-eighties, their inter-comedy marriage was frowned upon by all sections of the comedy circuit. Beany was expelled from her circus and Brian heckled at every gig by gangs of clownist thugs.

"In the early days, we had pretend bricks through the window, our car was covered in margarine and we had fake dog poo, put through our letter box. The rubbish practical jokes were just terrible" said Brian.

Today, however, they have paved the way for many couples from the clown and stand-up communities to tie the knot.

Don Hipster, of the Comedy Store, is quoted as saying "Their marriage is a joke, but a joke that's really not that funny!"
