Bridget Christie + Danielle Ward

Wednesday, 27 May 2009 - Friday, 10 July 2009

Wheatsheaf, 25 Rathbone Place, Oxford Street, W1T 1JB

Comedy: , Sketches, Stand Up, Fringe

How Much: £5.00 (Entry)
In 2003 Bridget Christie began doing open spots on the comedy circuit and worked on the diary column of the Daily Mail. Whilst there, she was strangled by Gene Wilder, fed a fish by Peter Stringfellow, mistaken for someone else by Mel Brooks, hated by David Dimbleby, ignored by Cherie Blair and patronised by Jenny Eclair.

This affectionate exposé of a showbiz gossip column is sure to delight both Daily Mail readers and decent people too. As well as hearing all about celebs which we all love, let's admit it (See how Alan Yentob fell off a chair! Hear what Liam Gallagher said at the premiere of Shrek 2!), it is also a warm and interesting account of a provincial Gloucester girl, with no real qualifications, adrift in the sophisticated world of wealth and fame.
