Felicity Ward was very good (very punchy, very affable, her story telling was sublime) but she suffered from the "packing them in" syndrome. You have your shows booked too close together and you worry about getting to the next show. You ask yourself "do I really have time to laugh?". Like last year, after five minutes of "Kristen Schaal is like a horse" she was really started to tick me off!!!

Andrew Lawrence was great (as Justin Hazelwood said). Great story telling and punchlines? They didn't seem planted they just came. Weird. It was like they came out of the metre of his delivery. He's a genius.

Mike Wilmot is one of my favourites for his blue humour. Sorry, I love a smutty joke. He made the comment that you shouldn't do your dirty stuff up front but I timed him, it took him seven minutes into his set to do a joke about anal rape in prison (practice what you preach buddy!). He's like a lovable old uncle that you practice flirting with (you know you've done it). Just think of it as a job, going around the world touching people up. He presses my button every time (is that a finger he's pointing or his he just glad to see me?).
