No More Mr Nice Chelsea, the debut stand-up special from Chelsea Birkby, is now available on YouTube.

The show, which started at the Edinburgh Fringe in 2022, was a nominee for Best Show in the Comedians' Choice Awards.

The hour-long video, which was recorded at Sidney and Eden in Bristol in December 2023, is described as follows: "What is it to be nice and when is it time to stop? Watch the award-winning and critically acclaimed debut stand-up hour from comedian Chelsea Birkby from the comfort of wherever you are I guess. Expect pop culture, philosophy and YOUR MUM! This special is made with love as well as gratuitous c♡m jokes and is only possible thanks to friends and favours."

Speaking to BCG, Birkby says: "I'm so excited to share this special with the world (wide web). I really poured my heart, soul and several extremely gratuitous jokes into it, for your viewing pleasure. And I'm pleased we captured some of the mischief of a live show. I hope it finds people who'll enjoy it!"

The show's director, Alex Farrow, adds: "I am deeply proud to have helped Chelsea with this amazing show. Her material is so packed with killer jokes and deep ideas that it was frankly a pleasure to direct. She is my favourite stand-up."

No More Mr Nice Chelsea can be watched here:

Birkby will be touring her new show This Is Life, Cheeky Cheeky between January and March 2025.
