Marie McLaren is a latecomer to the stage – but she’s in good company at her comedy class in Glasgow.
The 88-year-old has been learning the ropes of stand-up comedy from professional comedian Viv Gee over the last four weeks.
She is part of a group of over-50s who took part in the sessions, which will end with them taking the stage for live shows at The Social Hub Glasgow.
“The danger of doing comedy as an older person is that people might think you have lost it,” Marie says.
“But in my opinion age is only a number.”
Marie, from East Kilbride, was nominated for the class by her daughter.
