Chris York, The Huffington Post, 16th June 2016Opinion: mainstream v alternative - is the gap closing?
We live in interesting times for comedy. I never thought I'd see Sara Pascoe on The Graham Norton Show. Maybe the gap is closing between what we describe as alternative and what we describe as mainstream.

Bruce Dessau, Beyond The Joke, 11th May 2016Review: Glasgow Comedy Festival, Isy Suttie
I love a bit of whimsy but in the past I've found Suttie to be almost too whimsical. But the book - or maybe hitting her thirties and becoming a mum - seems to have given her more focus. Her stories and songs now feel more relatable. Suttie is still slightly nutty, but in a good way. Maybe she should write a musical next.
