I like the purity of stand-up because it is all about whether people laugh at your jokes. Either they laugh or they don't. ↗

I made a supreme effort not to do that thing that parents do, which is to bore people without children to death by going on and on about how funny their children are, so there's none of that hopefully. ↗

They say revenge is a dish best eaten cold, but for most people, by the time it's ready to eat, they just don't fancy it any more. ↗

Who do I like? I am a big fan of French and Saunders - not that that they are particularly stand-up I have to say, but I think they have been great for women and they are of themselves just incredibly funny whether they are male or female. ↗
