I think eatshitderek was from a ricky gervais sitcom?

Trailedanderror · 04/02/2018 13:55

She's great. I've been in the same shops as her many times and she's completely the same in real life. I'm sure she'll be absolutely lovely if when I said we should be friends.

TheQueenOfWands · 04/02/2018 13:55

Do you think she'll come on here and talk to us?

And is anyone else having a total fan girl moment?

AppleKatie · 04/02/2018 13:53

Great interview 😃

I like the idea of Jo posting occasionally on the boards, and it’s nice to see MN spoken about in a non derogatory way in a public place!

MyBrilliantDisguise · 04/02/2018 13:53

I'd love a clip of that moment where she told the crowd what he'd said.

Tbh I always thought EatShitDerek WAS Jo Brand!

AnyFucker · 04/02/2018 13:52

I love her.

TheQueenOfWands · 04/02/2018 13:52

Ooo, is Jo Brand on MN?

I've loved her for years. Since I first got into stand-up comedy when I was about 14. She used to wear red DMs back then. (I had green ones.)

My colleague and I laughed our arses of at Getting On.

Jo's awesome. Big fan.

Id saved that article to read later when I can enjoy it.
Love Jo Brand esp when shes acting. Love her expressions and asides - all of which appear totally natural in Getting On .

I was thrilled to be able to speak to her when she led a performance for children in St Pauls Cathedral a few years back. Happily sat my middle aged bum on the floor directly under the dome and listened to her .
(wishes I had a cool user name for Jo to like Grin )

I’d love her to name the CEO, what an arsehole.

CorbynTrouserPress · 04/02/2018 13:48

Ekphrasis · 04/02/2018 13:45

Thanks!

Waves at Jo!

hipsterfun · 04/02/2018 13:44

^ That one works.

DullAndOld · 04/02/2018 13:42

Jo Brand spends an hour a day on Mumsnet!
She likes the user names! Esp EatShitDerek.

QuentinSummers · 04/02/2018 13:41

Brilliant article. That story about the advertising agency is just Shock
I love her.

Sorry! Blush

Did that work? Anyway, it's on the homepage and MN and its 'older' feminists get a mention Smile
