Here are your nominees for best comedy show and best newcomer to the 2018 Edinburgh Fringe

After three weeks of show, and heading into the final week of the Edinburgh Fringe, we have our nominees for the best of the fest!

Alex Edelman is proving his Best Newcomer win was no fluke, winning over the Scots once more, this time nominated for Best Comedy Show. In this category, too, is Rose Matafeo, who wowed me last month in Montreal in just a few short minutes.

We’ll find out the winners this weekend.

Congrats to all of the nominees!
