I thought you might like to see a clip of Shappi's stand up routine.

she has a 'niche' sort of approach to things racist. She uses them for comedic effect - not unlike Omid Djalili - going from 'posh English' accent to ethnic accent and back again in seconds flat. I find her humour very intelligent.

(I'm now off to listen to the Edinburgh show which I've not heard yet. *Hangs head in shame* Thanks again to KJ for the upload.)
