The Book Tour That Wasn’t a Stand-Up…

Out now · 52:17

We bought tickets for a comedy night. We got a lovely man reading from his memoir for an hour and a quarter. Was it funny? Was it a book club? Did either of us stay awake? Episode one, and already we have questions for the box office.

Hello, lovely

Two friends. One diary. Zero recall.

We’re two women of a certain age who love a night at the comedy… but can we ever remember who was on, where it was, or what actually happened?!

Join us for (slightly hazy) reviews, strong opinions and the occasional genius insight. Pull up a chair, pour a cuppa, and grab a croissant. It’s probably from yesterday.

The official scale

How we score a show

Forget stars. Every show gets rated in croissants.

  1. Stale

    Left at the interval. Went for chips.

  2. A Bit Dry

    Fine. Nice venue. Good loos.

  3. Perfectly Decent

    Would go again if the parking’s easy.

  4. Buttery

    Laughed so much we missed the next joke.

  5. Fresh From the Oven

    Still quoting it in the car home. Wrongly.
