Lucy Porter
Diminutive stand-up comedian making a big name for herself.

Recent TV includes Would I Lie to You, QI and Impossible, she’s a regular on Radio 4’s News Quiz and The Now Show. 'Fizzing with inventive one-liners... a treat from start to finish' (The Herald) 'Clever, chatty and charming' (Three Weeks) 'Impeccably punch-lined anecdotes of the everyday... genuinely delightful' (The Daily Telegraph) 'Deliciously cutting' (The Independent) 'She is like your witty friend who's always brilliant company down the pub. Many stand-ups would give their non-drinking arms to be able to transfer that kind of sparkling bar-room bonhomie to the stage and Porter does it effortlessly' (The Scotsman).
