CROSSING BORDERS

Despite playing baggage handler Suj in successful airport mockumentary Borderline, Patel is keen not to limit himself to television alone. He’s also acted in BBC iPlayer short film The Fast & The Fool, voiced a pessimistic elephant in animated short Freaks Of Nature, and even dual-wielded two lambs in an advert for nasal spray. Somehow he still finds time to devote to his main gig; his latest stand-up show, Titan, begins on August 3 at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival.
