I've been a big fan of Alice Lowe since I first saw her at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival in various Garth Marenghi shows at the turn of the century. In fact when historians talk about female winners of the Edinburgh Comedy Award they often overlook Lowe, who appeared in Marenghi's Perrier-winning show in 2001. Lowe went on to star in Marenghi's Darkplace on C4 and more recently made a bloody splash in the cinema in Sightseers.
