Short Com, 8th February 2018Comedy night takes the PC out of stand up elite
Those infuriated by the perceived left-wing bias of BBC satire are being targeted by Britain's first un-PC comedy night, which aims to give comics a space to puncture liberal taboos. The theme of the night is "no self-censorship". It encourages comedians to make jokes about targets that often escape the barbs of mainstream satirists, from Remain politicians to Jeremy Corbyn's Labour and the global warming consensus.

Bruce Dessau, Beyond The Joke, 31st July 2017Leicester Square Theatre New Comedian Of Year review
A perfectly splendid night of comedy, this competition final was worth the ticket price. Nobody died - which is the least you can hope for - and some distinguished themselves. There was a standout winner (Joby MageeanOlga Koch) but the second and third positions (and there could have been a fourth) were tightly contested.
