This multi-award winner commands the stage with a whirlwind of energy
and leaves audiences breathless with laughter. Her extensive list of credits includes ‘Live At The Apollo’, ‘Have I Got News For You?’, ‘Mock the Week’, ‘Pointless’, ‘Richard Osman’s House of Games’, ‘The Last Leg’ and ‘Celebrity Mastermind’.
