In one of the comedy ensembles of the ilk of The Fast Show or Naked Video, a comedienne played a character of a pubescent girl, excitedly giving us her skew-whiff world view. The image was enhanced by the character sitting in a chair twice the normal size. I remember seeing this in the '90s, but have no idea who the comedienne was or the cast she was with. Can anybody help?
Morwenna Banks "Little Schoolgirl" from the brilliant series "Absolutely" - got to be her. Very, very funny and clever.

Also did (amongst others) Gwynedd to the superb John Sparkes as Denzil on the same show - love these characters!
I can think of several people currently employed as comedians who should be made to watch Morwenna Banks at work in Absolutely and a number of subsequent programs and then told, "Now that's how you do funny!"
And I do know what is funny!
Do you see what I did there? 
(I'm guessing 'probably not' in some cases).
