Thsi newish Liverpudlian comic paints an unremittingly unflattering portrait of her home town, full to overflowing of rat-like Scallies.

She’s cool and confident in her delivery – an ease in front of an audience presumably picked up from her days as a teacher – but the material is often formulaic and bland.

Although engaging, what she does not project is any idea that she is an instinctively funny comic, instead preferring to stick to mechanically following a blueprint.
