Denise Van Outen: Critics ruined comedy career chances
Denise Van Outen has blamed "unfair" criticism for ruining her chance of a comedy career. The presenter said that she is still waiting for her comedy break after an unsuccessful stint in the TV show Babes in the Wood.
Catherine Earp, Digital Spy, 30th December 2013Three girlies and their 'laddish' neighbour all live in St John's Wood. Lamentable ITV sitcom from 1998 starring Karl Howman (the geezer from the Flash ads who was Jacko in equally pathetic 1980s comedy Brush Strokes). The 'babes' included a pre-EastEnders Samantha Janus and Denise Van Outen. It had absolutely no redeeming qualities whatsoever. About as funny as nailing your own foot to the floor.
