I’m yet to hear Ellie Taylor, Mel Giedroyd, Sara Pascoe or Katherine Ryan crack a joke between them.

Nina Conti
Sindhu Vee ~ Her schtick is 'Indian mother, so funny from a different angle
Shazia Mirza ~ Muslim woman. A different take on life
Jen Brister
Gina Yashere ~ Her material has improved massively since she moved to the States
Mae Martin. Young and still finding her direction. But good.
Josie Long.
Lou Sanders - Has written for television as well as stand-up. Intelligent.
Jo Caulfield
Kemah Bob ~ Texan woman now living in UK. Much of her stuff deals with mental health; gender identity etc. Which is different.
Jenny Eclair
Francesca Martinez ~ She has cerebral palsy so speaks slowly and describes herself as 'A bit wobbly' - Brilliant.

@Picklebobble2 And don’t forget Meera Syal, in Mrs Sindhu investigates. One of the funniest comedians around.

@SW-User I think she is the most wonderful writer.
Whether it be for novels or scripts.
