I don’t like female stand-up comics. They’re usually man-hating feminists telling jokes that belittle men, and are often one-trick ponies.

But Sarah Millican isn’t your average female comedian.

Over the past year or two she’s become a household name after a range of appearances on TV panel shows, and at this year’s Edinburgh Fringe she got on to many top-ten lists for best joke of the festival.

Blackburn clearly couldn’t wait to welcome her back for a second time in two months, with the hall packed.

Bad language was a staple in her show, as were graphic anatomical references, which went down very well with a lively Friday-night audience.

There was plenty of chance for audience participation as they were asked to shout out what they’d do in various situations, like if they ran out of toilet paper.

Millican shared a previous audience member’s answer, which was, rather worryingly, to use a sandwich.

Seeing a comedian live can sometimes put me off them, but Sarah Millican remains a firm favourite after this performance.
