​Andrew Fox Komedia new comedian of the year 2024 

“His gag-rich set draws on a few stereotypes, sometimes as a shortcut, and sometimes to subvert, as in his delightful description of what to do if facing an aggressive ‘chav’. With a surfeit of punchlines and a clear, authentic world view, ripe for affectionate mockery, he took the title on this close-fought night.” Steve Bennett, Chortle

“In his baseball cap and trackie bottoms and talking about growing up on a council estate he could have come across as a cousin of Simon Brodkin's Lee Nelson but Fox's stories had a ring of authenticity about them, well, maybe not the one about him being so small his parents could slip him and his endless siblings through the window when they lost their keys, but certainly some of his material. And Fox was clearly smart on the subject of class, aptly making the point that, of course, working class kids can be smart too. A clever and accessible set which, up against close competition, won him first prize on the night.” Bruce Dessau, Beyond the Joke

“Hugely relatable, funny, warm, and engaging! Go see him!!” Esther Manito 

“One of the most exciting new comedy voices to emerge from Brighton. Smart, original gag-writing with a lot of heart and hilarious authenticity.” Jill Edwards, Promoter – Comic Boom comedy club at Komedia Brighton

Elliot Milner newly crowned Hampshire comedian of the year 2024

Elliot is a new young-ish comedian who uses a mix of observational comedy and story telling about his struggles in becoming a "proper grown up". While his friends are starting their careers, finding long term partners and buying houses, Elliot is living at home with his parents trying to become a comedian. His family are so proud.

Elliot recently won Hampshire comedian of the year competition winning through heats, semi finals to be crowned.

Southampton female comedian of the year Shazza B

Shazza’s savage outlook on life, her ageing body and farcical fantasies make for both a hilarious and enlightening comedy experience.

Recently described by an audience member as “a very funny little lady”
