The Malcolm Hardee Awards have been handed out tonight at a show at the Counting House at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival.

The award for Act Most Likely to Make a Million Quid was awarded to Rob Kemp for his Elvis Dead show at Heroes @ Monkey Barrel.

Meanwhile absurdist Mark Dean Quinn has won the Cunning Stunt Award for scooping discarded stars out of bins and claiming them for his own show.

And Terry Alderton has won the Malcolm Hardee Award for Comic Originality for his latest show.

This is supposed to be the final year of the Malcolm Hardee Awards because organiser John Fleming only had enough trophies made to last until 2017.

The awards were presented by journalist Kate Copstick and Malcolm Hardee's sister Clare Hardee.
