The comedian, best known for his deadpan delivery and dark humour, topped the poll in front of performers such as Frankie Boyle, Michael McIntyre and John Bishop.

“I’m genuinely thrilled, because this is probably my greatest achievement – I’ve not won many awards,” he told the magazine. “ZOO readers are the young lads at my gigs, so it’s nice to know we’ve got the same sense of humour.”

However, there is noticeably a lack of females represented this year in the six Best Comedy Show nominations and the five Best Newcomer nominations.

Nica Burns, the founder and producer of the awards, said that she was personally disappointed that no females were shortlisted in the categories but still believed that the list of nominations reflected a year of highly creative and original comedy. Tim Arthur, the comedy editor of Time Out magazine, heads the panel of judges.

Nominated for Best Comedy Show include John Bishop with Elvis Has Left the Building, Russell Kane with Human Dressage, and Tom Wrigglesworth with Open Letter to Richard Branson. The others are Idiots of Ants, Jon Richardson and Tim Key.

Nominated for Best Newcomer are Carl Donnelly, Jack Whitehall, Johnny Sweet, Kevin Bridges, and Pete Johansson.

The winner of Best Comedy Show wins a cheque for £8,000 and the winner of Best Newcomer wins a cheque for £4,000. Winners will be announced on August 29 and the following two days (the final two days of the Edinburgh Festival Fringe) will showcase the winners and nominees in two award shows.

The show on August 30 will be at the Edinburgh Pleasance and the show on August 31 will be at the Edinburgh Assembly.

Comedy fans can catch some of these Edinburgh Comedy Awards nominees in action. John Bishop tickets, Russell Kane tickets and Tom Wrigglesworth tickets are all available to compare and buy at tixdaq.com
