An Ungrateful Woman
Why did people praise Michael Gove on 25 February 2014? What made Bridget lose control of her emotions at a casting for a yoghurt commercial? And which national newspaper genuinely mistook Bridget (from R4's Bridget Christie Minds the Gap, Dilemma, Heresy, News Quiz, The Unbelievable Truth, BBC's HIGNFY, It's Kevin and C4's Cardinal Burns) for King Charles II? 'One of the finest comedians around' (Independent). 'A superb stand-up with a powerful voice and something to say... a revelation' ***** (Observer). 'A beautiful balance between the personal, the public and the parodic' **** (Times). Downstairs. Live subtitled performance: Mon Nov 17 at 21:30
