Recommended by Comedy.co.uk

This is a very funny hour on shame, particularly around sex on the part of women. Lou Sanders tackles difficult subjects like assault and alcoholism with the lightest of touches and lots of big laughs - this show has been selling out so get there early to avoid disappointment/shame.


Yes, big topics are discussed. Her labia, for one. But also shame, sobriety and unrequested sex. This mucky little pig rolls around in her own filth for your delight. As seen on 8 Out Of 10 Cats Does Countdown, Alan Davies: As Yet Untitled, Comic Relief and heard on Radio 4's The Unbelievable Truth. Lou has written for Mock The Week and Miranda Hart. 'Destined for hugeness' (Time Out). 'Something new is happening in comedy' (Independent). 'Genuinely different' (Scotsman).
