Local and international comedians will include Dave Hughes, Arj Barker, Tom Gleeson & Steve Coogan.

Excellent! Thanks for letting us know HG. I looked on the comedy fest website recently to see if Shaun was doing anything (eg that writers thing he did a few years ago)
This is good news.

Drat. It's well sold out. Anyone going along?
This does tend to be the coporate/star studded elite event. And the telly broadcast is highly edited.

I would go, but i'll be away for the event. There are tickets $300+ depending on how much you want to go on ebay.

I just saw an ad for the festival gala. It's on Ten this Monday night.
Shaun was wielding a knife.

Sold! I was going to a screening of Pink Panther 2, but I'm guessing five minutes of Shaun hosting is going to deliver more laughs than 85 minutes of comedy French accents.
