Your acts for this evening:

Bilal Zafar

Bilal Zafar was nominated for the lastminute.com Best Newcomer Award at the Edinburgh Fringe for his debut show, CAKES, and won the New Act of the Year award, joining past winners like Stewart Lee and Ardal O’Hanlon.

A runner-up at the Leicester Square Theatre New Comedian of the Year competition, he has appeared on BBC3, BBC iPlayer, and BBC Radio, and written for The Independent. He also runs a popular Twitch channel with over 12.3K followers, where he streams an interactive, improvised comedy show as a scandal-ridden football manager, attracting attention from radio and newspapers.

Sophie Duker

Sophie Duker, the self-proclaimed "hot comedy weirdo," is back with a fiery new hour for 2025.

Winner of Taskmaster, Celebrity Pointless, and Celebrity Mastermind, she’s also the host of the Wacky Racists Comedy Club and a familiar face from Obsessed with... I May Destroy You and Everything I Know About Love. Armed with sharp wit, boundary-pushing humor, and a tequila-based cocktail, Sophie delivers the kind of stand-up that has critics calling her “incomparable” (Voice Magazine) and “laugh-out-loud funny” (The Telegraph).
