So, I'm browsing the British Comedy Guide website, as I sometimes do, and guess which beautiful red mane I see on the front page?

Clue: not Eddie Redmayne.

Well done, Ali.

I saw this on facebook! Ali's such a lovely chap. A big congratulations to the man ;-D

Nice! And judging by the clips, well deserved. (Ali was the only one who actually made me laugh, although Sindhu Vee wasn't bad either.)

Is there a full-length video of the show (or at least Ali's piece) available?

There are those who believe that life here began out there...

I just noticed this post. Thanks guys! Between you and me and the internet, the video wasn't very well edited. They didn't choose most people's best bits (possibly because of swearing) and they've under-recorded the audience so we all sound like we're dying.

Half my set was about the fact that I can't smile properly. And, if nothing else, that photo proves it.

That's fine - you've spent your time leaning how to make others smile instead.


Ok that was way over the top.
