Newbie Nicola Bolsover takes her time to get going, with an undergagged routine about how someone once said she looked like Matt Lucas and a long-winded discussion of how she planned to be a child-hating spinster in her dotage. Some laughs come at the end of this section, but aren’t worth the wait, however.

Her closing song, a paean to Sean Bean,is entertaining, as she accompanied her surreal couplets with bongos, Hans Teeuwen-style.
