My name is Rebecca (but I also answer to Beki and Oi You). I am a comedy writer but don't worry, I also have a proper job. You may have heard some of my quips on the radio or you may own a television.
I am very pleased to be part of the wonderful Huffington Post blogging team and you can read my first post for their UK Comedy section right here, right now I hope you enjoy it.
The subject of my first post is about nudity and comedy, and how the French do it so differently to us.
With that in mind for tonight's Sunday Night laugh, a clip from the French female-led sketch show, Vous Les Femmes. Adieu!
Happy New Year everyone. Apologies for not blogging over the festive period, why not make it a conspiracy theory that I am in fact Santa.
Actually, talking of the great man, Santa filled my stocking with a much appreciated gift - tickets to see the glorious and wonderful Joan Rivers in October. And so I send you into the new week with a little of Queen Joan and the promise I shall blog again shortly.
Today I watched Elf for the umpteenth time. It is my favourite Christmas film alongside Scrooged. No small part in my love for it is the wonderful Will Ferrell. If you haven't seen him as George Bush in You're Welcome America - you need to. This part from it, when George remembers his favourite woman made me laugh so hard I had an asthma attack!
I've been watching reruns of Harry Enfield and Chums on one of the satelite channels (I forget which); I'd forgotten just how funny it was, Harry aided and abetted by the equally wonderful Kathy Burke and Paul Whitehouse.
The ever helpful public information films of yesteryear are probably my favourite, and here's a classic. Laugh in the face of the new week.
