Aftermirth day comedy club where 'babies are welcome'

Bristol comedian Angie Belcher has set up a daytime comedy club for mums and dads with babies.

She said it has normal adult content - the only difference is babies are welcome. She said she was inspired after recently becoming a mother herself.

But only babies under 18 months are permitted - once they get a bit older they "might pick up the swear words".
