She's brilliant, but . . .
There's milking a joke and there's desperately trying to milk something that was bone dry in the first place.
It was like the drunk at the dinner party who thinks they're hilarious and drags it out because everyone is laughing out of politeness and embarrassment.
I don't understand how the material had any legs on paper in first place as it was so terrible it was like watching a car crash in slow motion.
I feel bad for her because the critics are going to slaughter it.
Spot on. We're watching it now thinking ... argh!

I liked it!
Her Sonia and Fearne Cotton are just utterly perfect.
And the sections for each character are short enough that the ones you're not as keen on aren't on for long.
They are, but I find the two 'real life slebs' so irritating that I don't wish to see a fairly credible impression on screen.
That said 'Miranda' exclaiming "awkward!" following a turgid Pinter exchange was pretty funny.
