Glasgow International Comedy Festival Closing Gala 2024

Susie McCabe went from unflappably hosting this celebration of her home city's resurgent comedy festival, to kicking off the second half with the more casually soul-baring aspects of her stand-up, before ultimately taking home the Sir Billy Connolly Spirit of Glasgow Award, commended by the Big Yin himself in a pre-recorded video. She looked visibly stunned, receiving hugs all round on stage, but delivered a composed acceptance speech.
