2016 Edinburgh Fringe
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaarrghhh! It's the Increasingly Prestigious Malcolm Hardee Comedy Awards Show - and It's Free!
It's the annual two-hour charity variety show filled with bizarre acts and very alternative comedy which includes the presentation of three annual Malcolm Hardee Comedy Awards. The show will also include the Scottish National Russian Egg Roulette Championships and possibly a bit of spaghetti juggling.

There has never been an award for the ultimate Malcolm Hardee Award winner, but if there was, says John Fleming, it would go to Doktor CocaColaMcDonalds.
Claire Smith, The Scotsman, 16th August 2016How to win a Malcolm Hardee Comedy Award
Well, the best way to win an Award and to honour Malcolm's memory would be to lend me £500 and not expect to get it back but, if you are more vanilla in your Award approaches, the first thing is to know is what the fuck the awards actually are.

We hope to stage the annual Malcolm Hardee Comedy Awards Show this year, as usual, on the final Friday of the Edinburgh Fringe - 26th August - but not in its normal venue of the Counting House Ballroom. This is because, today, The Gilded Balloon (a pay-to-enter venue) has 'poached' The Counting House venue(s) - including the Pear Tree and Blind Poet - from the Laughing Horse Free Festival and so we are looking for a new venue in which to host both the increasingly prestigious (but now homeless) Malcolm Hardee Comedy Awards and for the daily Grouchy Club.
