Live review: Komedia New Comedy Award, Komedia, Brighton

This year's Komedia New Comedy Award final got off to a great start. I was one of the judges and when I arrived our table was groaning with chicken pieces, halloumi fries, chips. Definitely how to win over a journalist's heart - if you don't stop it beating first. After this though things did go slightly downhill until victory was snatched from the jaws of defeat by some of the stronger, later acts.
