Joining Thanyia is actress and stand-up Kerry Godliman and rising star Babatunde Aleshe, winner of the Best Newcomer at the Black Entertainer Comedy awards. Keeping the house in order is head judge Fern Brady, who brings her honest and authentic approach to judging as only Fern can. The judges will have a tough job picking a winner from the five new comics who will take to the stage with material jam-packed with fresh topics and jokes a-plenty.
