The weekend's highlight though will surely be the Scottish Comedian of the Year contest. Distinguished by the shoddiest trophy ever spray-painted, last year's inaugural competition witnessed a slender victory for Mark Nelson over Paul Pirie. Following a series of heats across Scotland, this year's line-up of emerging talent includes the assured Agnew, returning finalist and bampot the Wee Man, amiable Aussie Ro Campbell, Teddy, one third of ramshackle sketch trio the Amazing B*******, sassy Jay Lafferty, National Service advocate Sean Grant, occasionally surreal Northern Irishman Niall Browne, crowd-baiting Scott Forbes and wild-card Aberdonian entry Gus Tawse. One spot remains open to - potentially - anyone as it's for the winner of tonight's Gong Show at Maggie May's. Des Clarke hosts and the prize money is £1000.
