Latitude comedy review: Sexy American Girl Cousins

On stage there is something so huge, so space-filling (in this case, not actually that difficult): the uncomfortable feeling of the two on stage that builds between bursts of Miley Cyrus and Demetriou's jittery hip-grinding and genital-framing.

Russell Howard tells us what he thinks of America

British comedian Russell Howard genuinely enjoys life on the road. "When you start exploring a country, you can wander about and take little thoughts onstage with you," Howard says. "It's like an interactive diary: You have a day and then you have a bunch of thoughts and then you bring them out onstage and some of them work and some of them you're like, 'what?'" Last year, Howard, 35, went on his first proper U.S. tour, playing comedy clubs and intimate venues -- a far cry from his life back home, where he headlines arenas and is a TV star (his long-running BBC series, Russell Howard's Good News, is like a cross between The Daily Show and The Soup). On Saturday, Howard kicks off another American stand-up tour at Sixth and I.
