Angela Barnes (Mock The Week, Live at the Apollo, 8 Out of 10 Cats Does Countdown and former chair of BBC Radio 4’s The News Quiz) has good intentions but trying to live your best life, as it turns out, is really bloody hard. Stand-up, stories and jokes from “…a gloriously down-to-earth, straight-talking and extremely funny comic” (Guardian).
After a career in health and social care, Angela Barnes decided to realise a long-held ambition and give comedy a go. Within a couple of years she had won the 2011 BBC New Comedy Award and became a finalist at the 2011 Latitude Festival New Act of the Year competition.
Since 2011, Angela, and her witty world view, has been catapulted onto numerous radio and television shows.
