"This is a book about life - we’ve all got one, so it’s very relatable. It’s also about mistakes, family, growing up, shame and a few more mistakes. It contains tales of dead dads, pretend dead dads, getting barred from an osteopath’s, getting arrested, sex crimes and forgiveness."
Join one of Britain’s most original comedians and champion of series eight of Taskmaster, Lou Sanders as she celebrates the releaseof her frank, honest and painfully funny memoir What’s That Lady Doing?: False Starts and Happy Endings.
"I used to be addicted to boys and alcohol and then men and alcohol and then some other things. I was a little unhinged. I’ve got some great stories about when I was as mad as cheese and then some more stories about how I got less mad and more happy. If that’s the sort of thing you’re after, please pick me up and take me to bed (that’s the book speaking so a little joke there)."
Lou will share stories of her greatest mistakes and how they are often in fact triumphs. Exploring everything from sex to clothes, What’s That Lady Doing? is a painfully funny look at what happens when we work through our issues and come out the other side. Don’t miss this hilariously relatable event!
A Night In with Lou Sanders was originally broadcast on Fri 18 Aug 2023.
