The line-up has been announced for this year's Old Comedian of the Year final. 

Following heats at the Museum of Comedy, the twelve finalists will compete for the crown at the Leicester Square Theatre on May 29.

The show will be hosted by Lynn Ruth Miller. The winner gets £1000, runner-up gets £500 and 3rd place gets £250. The competition is open to anyone over 35 who has been performing for 5 years or more and not making a living from comedy. The only restriction is that all contestants must stick to five minutes of original material or risk disqualification.

Tickets are £15 and can be bought here.
