2007 if.comedy best newcomer nominee

Loads of things frighten Zoe Lyons and that is why she decided to write a show about confronting fears. She has been scared most of her life and born the consequences. She lost her hair aged 11 through alopecia, she was the only kid in class with a comb over and a phase of crippling panic attacks left her almost house bound, it was only the fear that she was missing out on something that got her out the door.

Well enough is enough, it’s no more Miss Scaredy Pants, Zoe is ready to tackle fear head on. From wrestling snakes in Borneo, to throwing herself out of a plane at 2000ft with a parachute that was far too small…. lying about her weight for fear of seeming a porker. Finally having the guts to hang up her apron and embarking on a career in stand up comedy. And finally last year, having the big gay wedding, with all of the family in attendance. At this rate, she will soon be able to sleep with the light off.
