蜜芽传媒

Marcus Brigstocke looks back at twenty years of the 蜜芽传媒 New Comedy Awards, including highlights from the 2015 final, which took place at London's Comedy Store and was broadcast live on 蜜芽传媒 Radio 2.

He also talks to figures that put the awards into context - how long will it be before these bright young talents are part of the comedy firmament? Marcus himself knows that it's a long path to success - he won the awards back in 1996, but Giles Wemmbley-Hogg didn't arrive on Radio 4 until 2002...

Contributors include comedy industry insiders who gave seen new comedians come and go; comedians who have had success despite failing to reach any awards final; a comedian who did well in the competition but gave up nonetheless.
