Low Effort Sketches are an award-winning comedy duo made up of members Alice Wickersham and Andy Bucks. They deploy charm and "weapons-grade caterwauling" to make up for their general lack of pre-gig preparation, and it basically seems to work. Their material mainly consists of silly sketches delivered with a lack of energy which they hope comes across as ironic.
"Unfollowable. Hilarious" - Chortle

They deservedly romped away with the first prize for their preparedness, writing, smart ideas and ability to improvise when the tech gets in a twist...Unfollowable. Hilarious
