Good Ship Comedy feat. Angela Barnes

Angela Barnes swapped a career in health and social care for
stand-up in 2010 and hasn’t looked back. Within just a couple of
years she had won the BBC New Comedy Award in 2011 and toured
around the country with her stand-up shows. Angela has starred in
BBC Two’s Mock the Week, Live at the Apollo, House of Games, and
Hypothetical on Dave. She is a firm favourite on BBC Radio 4,
having featured on The Now Show and The News Quiz – including a
stint as the host.
Angela co-hosts the less-than-serious popular podcast We Are
History with John O’Farrell. The two history nerds discuss,
explain, and laugh at interesting and quirky episodes from the
olden days. When not working she can usually be found poking around
the nation’s nuclear bunkers, fulfilling her love of Cold War
Brutalist architecture.
Most crucially, she is a patron of the SLT!

lines” Scotsman
