Kerry Leigh
This Brit-born, Aussie-raised comic may be a stylish performer, but she's lacking in distinctive material. Her take on the topical Kate Moss story, for instance, results only in the mock-incredulous comment: who’d have thought there was cocaine in the modelling world?
And pouring scorn on the flawed logic of the soccer chant: ‘You’re going home in a fucking ambulance’, given that ambulances tend to go to hospitals, has been done almost verbatim by at least one other comic.
Only Leigh’s undoubtedly cocksure delivery that hides her relative inexperience goes any way to saving this otherwise weak and disjointed set.
