A bellyful of laughs is forecast for Thursday 7 October in Glasgow
when Curry King Charan Gill MBE puts the fun back into fundraising
with The (Hottest) Funniest Night of the Year!
Some 500 guests are set to enjoy a night of hot and hilarious
celebration of all that's best in the worlds of showbiz and commerce
when some of Scotland's top business names will be playing it for
laughs and competing for votes to be crowned the first Hottest Stand
Up of the Year.
Making the transition from corporate to comedy are: John McGuire,
managing director of the award-winning Phoenix Car Company; fashion
agent Jack Konopate; Gaynor Turner, jeweller, and Gordon White, MD of
design and marketing agency fatBuzz.
Each of them will be mentored by award winning Scottish comedienne
Janey Godley before they face a judging panel of real Scottish
comedians including Tam Cowan and Des Clarke who will give their
verdict before Scotland's new stand up King or Queen is crowned.
The four comedic corporate contestants will be following in the
footsteps of event organiser and host Charan Gill, who delivered the
punch line to his own live stand-up debut last year by launching a
regular weekly Slumdog Stand-up slot every Thursday night at his
bustling Slumdog Bar & Kitchen on Sauchiehall Street.
Hottest Night host Charan Gill said, "Glasgow punters love a
curry and a good laugh - and we are renowned for our generosity. The
(Hottest) Funniest Night of the Year brings all three elements
together for a variety of good causes.
"It's no laughing matter that our fundraising on the evening
will benefit some really deserving charities with all the proceeds of
the evening benefiting the Entrepreneurial Exchange's Venture
Philanthropy Fund, Enlight; The Prince & Princess of Wales
Hospice and Help the Aged India - so, if you fancy a laugh, join us
for an evening of fantastic Indian food, music and sizzling comedy -
it's sure to bring a real smile to your face!"
The Hottest Night has raised an incredible £1 million over the
last decade for a range of charities. This year's (Hottest) Funniest
Night of the Year will once again be held in the Grand Ballroom at
the Hilton Glasgow on October 7, 2010 from 7pm to 11:45pm.
Tickets for the event are priced at £95 per person exclusive of
VAT or £950 exclusive of VAT for a table of 10. To book your
