The competition has an enviable track record of finding successful stand-ups, with previous finalists including Joe Lycett, Simon Bird, Iain Stirling, Chris Ramsey, Tom Rosenthal, Lauren Pattison and Salford graduate Jamali Maddix, who now fronts the Channel 4/Vice programme 'Hate They Neighbour.'
Salford students also claimed the spoils last year, with Erika Ehler taking the title, and in 2018 with Bexie Archer.
