Bridget Christie: My Daily Mail Hell - FESTIVAL HIGHLIGHTS at the Edinburgh Fringe 2009

In 2003 Bridget began doing open spots on the comedy circuit and working on the Diary column of the Daily Mail. Whilst there, Bridget was strangled by Gene Wilder, fed a fish by Peter Stringfellow and abruptly dismissed by David Dimbleby.

My Daily Mail Hell’s affectionate expose of a showbiz gossip column is sure to delight both Daily Mail readers and decent people too. See how Alan Yentob fell off a chair. Hear what Liam Gallagher said at the premiere of Shrek 2. Touch a real cup once held by Jack Vettriano. Find out how Pop Idol’s Darius Danesh got Brad Pitt’s horse to lie down. And learn how many lions Antonio Banderas has got.

But above all, share in the baffling experience of a provincial Gloucester girl, with no real qualifications, adrift in the sophisticated world of wealth and fame.

'A revolutionary redefining of character comedy.'
***** The Herald

'Brilliantly, uniquely funny… what truly
alternative comedy should be.' **** Chortle
