There really is one Simon Munnery well... except for his multiple comedy creations from Alan Parker - Urban Warrior through the League of Tedium to his legendary status on BBC radio 4 through his regular shows and appearances and onto his legendary annual appearances at the Edinburgh Fringe.
Munnery has been constantly innovating and has been an institution of British comedy scene from the 90's to the present day and his recent appearances on Stewart lee's Comedy Vehicle, It's Kevin and the Alternative Comedy Experience. Simon has appeared in festivals all over the world and quite frankly is the ultimate festival show always unique and unmissable particularly at his beloved Edinburgh Fringe One of the funniest, most original comedians of the past twenty years' (Guardian) 'Convention-defying, innovative stuff. Munnery is a must-see' (Times) |

Nick Revell - another legend of the birth of the modern day Alternative comedy scene in Britain back in the 80's starting out as a writer for amognst others the award-winning Million Pound Radio Show on BBC Radio 4, two series of the Radio 4 sit-com The Nick Revell Show, and his own show Nick Revell, on BBC-1. Awards include Perrier Nominee, BAFTAS, International Emmys, British Comedy Awards, Sony Radio Awards, Writers’ Guild Awards, Silver Rose of Montreux. He took a break for a period during the 90's before reemerging as arguably Britain's most firebrand fearless satirist Satirically brilliant. Travel miles to see him.” Guardian “Revell’s pedigree goes back to the Eighties, but his patter is as relevant today as it ever was” London Evening Standard "Revell comes at you in a torrent of words...and outrage and ideas and good, good old-fashioned satire...exhilarating and thought-provoking, angering and very funny."

BCN's Funniest FICer 2015 had to be postponed as FIC admin came under too much pressure but a competition this good and important to the development of grassroots comedy in the city could not just be cancelled so throughout early January we will run the competition and the valiant winner will be invited to the big FIC stage and join our awesome 'Best of British' Special in front of what is certain to be a packed 300 seats in Gracia for a taste of the comedy BIG time!!
