Win
10 tickets to the Scottish Comedian of the Year Grand Final!
Ask a typical Glaswegian, Dundonian or Doonhammer to
name you a famous Scottish opera singer, orchestra leader or ballet dancer
and they will struggle. Ask them to name a famous Scottish comedian and
instantly names such as Billy Connolly, Ricki Fulton, Chic Murray and
Frankie Boyle will trip off of their tongue.
The patter, banter, craic – call it what you will
– Scots have the best sense of humour in the world. The Scottish comedy
scene is great and each year the Scottish Comedian of the Year competition
-SCOTY- celebrates it in style. So much so that
last year’s final has been nominated for Best Traditional Event in the
Scottish Event Awards.
Best selling author & multi
award winning comedian Janey Godley introduces the final 10 contenders
in the nationwide search for the finest comedy talent in Scotland.
Not only will they have to make the audience laugh,
but to win the title, the coveted Banana Boots Trophy the massive cash
prize and gigs in Australia, they will have to impress our celebrity
judging panel with their good looks, originality and ability to deal with
hecklers.
This year's judging panel includes; Sanjeev
Kohli & Jane McCarry better known as Naveed & Isa from
BBC Still Game.
Other judges
include Steve Bennett
(Chortle.co.uk), Anthony Butler (Off The Kerb), Lee Martin
(Gag Reflex & Frog and Bucket), Stu Who (Scottish Comedy
Legend) and Alan Tyler (Head of Comedy and Entertainment at
BBC Scotland).
When it comes to making people laugh the Scots are
world leaders, something which Ha Ha Comedy and SCOTY proudly celebrates
and promotes.
