I remember..I premiered my one woman show ''the magic muff' at it and saw hugh cornwall in the big top. All run by the original EDT comedy team who sadly were kicked out of the edt to make way for a restaurant but are now happily running the hob in forest hill every saturday. breathes.
it ran for two years. they had a big top on goose green. withnail and I was screened in the first year and bill bailey did a riotous evening to close the second year. the following year the lib dems and tories took control of southwark and edfest was canned when they refused to continue supporting the event.
thank you for asking Alan, it was a stand up comedy show exploring whether the 'pram in the hallway' really is the enemy of art. What would have happened if Van Gogh had had children? and culminated in showing the paintings famous artists would have done when their hypothetical offspring begged them to ''draw dolly''. Then there was a little dance celebrating female creativity - the magic muff.

We used to boo Izzard of before he even started comparing his material was so bad. But he kept plugging away and thanks to us he is now very good! .

I remember telling Rhona Cameron how good she was when she did the open spot there. Harry Hill also appeared with some chap when he was starting.


Originally it was Janet Prince and Husband Steve Frost. The Lovely Leslie Claire O'neil (who I think did a bit of Corrie) and Emma - its Emma who continued at the HOB.

And my Favourite who used to stick a firework in his ... whose name escapes me even though he did a spot at my birthday party!

I remember this too - hysterically funny. And the improve thing too - whose line is it anyway - with some of the old faces from the TV show. Was a fantastic event, and sorely missed.

    • As we know Love Dulwich is now a Turkish meze grill restaurant and today they have started their lunch time special. A choice of a cold or hot starter (4 of each to choose from), plus a main meal (4 the choose from including a veggie meal) £15. I had hummus with the softest, warm bread to dip in it (you can ask for more bread) and then chicken shesh, 3 types of salad (onion & sumac, red cabbage & traditional leaf), bulgar - huge portions.   The food was tasty and delicious. Chicken was perfectly cooked, juicy and full of flavour, salad was fresh and the bulgar was cooked perfectly.  If you didn’t want the lunch special they also had the main menu which was small but with some amazing meal, chicken, veggie & fish options.  We really enjoyed it and will be back to sample the evening menu as well.   
    • Nikolay's work was recommended by several forum users in here, and we decided to go with his services after getting his quote: it was well priced, with the cost of each component clearly broken down. We recently purchased a Victorian conversion in Catford which had alot of damaged floorboards (old, but also damaged from badly done DIY repairs) which needed replacing, and a 4 x 4m bedroom which needed all new floorboards installed as previous owners removed all original boards to install cheap chipboard floors covered with padding and carpets. Nikolay and his team removed the chipboards, and built the floor in 2–3 days from reclaimed boards, alongside doing alot of replacements and repairs to a lounge and dining room. When the quote was to go up due to more repairs being needed (we asked for it) Nikolay communicated the changes, and gave us an updated quote quickly so we could update our budget for it. They were very communicative and gave frequent text and photo progress updates when we could not be there which put us at ease. The whole job was efficiently completed in 6 working days including sanding and staining all the floors. The job was completed to a high standard, and the results were incredible. I still have 1 more bedroom which needs restoring, and I have every intention to go back to Nikolay again for his services.
