Some people will watch Funny Cow and expect a rip roaring comedy about a female stand up comedian. That it is not. This is the story of a working class rebel fighting domestic violence and oppression by seeing the funny side. It is brave and probably be very misunderstood by most. For me it was a poignant reminder of the fight some people have to be heard. A brave and strong film.

We’ve heard a lot of talk recently of unnamed predators on the comedy circuit, and this is the story of one such man.
Ali thinks she has found the right man to co-present a radio show: comedian Ed. He’s funny, he’s nice - and actually he’s none of these things. He’s not at all what he seems to be, in fact.
Ali’s experience seemed all to plausible, and I very much enjoyed the way that she and the organisation called Scolds Bridle outed Ed’s behaviour. It was well worth the wait.
