Bridget Christie

From the moment comedian Bridget Christie announces herself as an ideal woman for Islamic fundamentalists - "I haven't had an education and you can't see me" - the polemical tone of her act is made clear. And she does not fail to deliver, in either sabre-toothed satire on a society that thinks feminism is a dirty word or in above-and-below the belt punches at the violence, abuse and misogyny women experience around the world.

Fellow comedian Fred MacAulay plays all the male and one of the female characters needed to illustrate her points. Her husband gets some revealing shots fired at him, too, but as he is Stewart Lee he can probably handle it.

Bridget Christie: fun, feminism and the wind of change

With a radio show and TV roles coming up, it's time to get to know Bridget Christie.

Comedian Bridget Christie noticed last year that misogyny was back. Then she realised it had never gone away, as her mother could have told her.

Just because you can get a mortgage doesn't mean a single women could 40 years ago.

My Edinburgh: Bridget Christie, comedian

When trying to make ends meet as an aspiring stand-up Bridget Christie found herself working on the Daily Mail diary column for five years, and how did she find the experience?

Comedy profile: Bridget Christie

Quirky and irreverant, this silver-tongued standup has made the improbable leap from showbiz diary hack to headline act.

A four part series by comedian Zaltzman (with a little help from Rory Bremner, Bridget Christie, Lucy Montgomery and Kim Wall) examining the first 10 years of the millennium. The title is itself a joke, punning on Radio 4's predeliction for ultralong series (e.g., This Sceptered Isle). At least, I hope it's a joke...
