For anyone looking for a hilarious, informative and warming experience at the Fringe, I have high expectations of Elaine's show. I mean, I haven't seen it, but I am sure it will be brilliant!

I hadn't heard of her before but I've just watched that speech and she is brilliant. She should be on television. The information about transgenderism and dementia was fascinating and something I hadn't considered before. What a shame someone so funny and knowledgeable and so genuinely helpful with women's health issues would probably be seen as too controversial to platform by the mainstream media.

She was on TV, I remember her getting Eamonn Holmes doing pelvic floor exercises on This Morning. Even that was hilarious. I'd love to see her if she goes on tour.

I've got a ticket too. 😁 Looking forward to it.

I've got tickets and I'm very excited!

That speech is brilliant - thank you.

Thing on Twitter to try and get her on Woman's Hour because it is Listeners' week and she is hilarious.

I have tickets! Very excited about it.

Elaine certainly doesn't shy away from the obvious puns or word-play. I've seen her 'in conversation' a couple of times and she's genuinely funny and informative. Isn't she MN's own @GussieGrips ?

She is, but she said she lost her name in the hacking a few years ago.

I saw this show last year when it was a condo friendly walking tour, it was great.

she says she is “sex factual”, so am going back with some “nearly peaked” colleagues, we have a weekend af the fringe and I am packing it with as much femnist shows as I can!

I love the sound of her voice!

Super intelligent, empathetic and interesting.

Yep, whenever I think of her I certainly do pelvic floors.

I'm half way through watching this:

which I'm really enjoying. You really do go from laughing to crying to laughing again. She's great.

JoodyBlue · 25/07/2022 17:25

She had a chat with Glinner - here - grahamlinehan.substack.com/p/the-brilliant-elaine-miller

I agree - she is great

I was just thinking of her today while doing pelvic floor exercises in the queue at Tesco, she’s brilliant.

I’m a big fan of Elaine. I have seen her perform and speak at events. Absolutely brilliant and very funny and also very safe too. Go and enjoy.
