BlogFest: Come and watch Jo Brand's keynote speech

7 replies

The genuinely lovely Jo Brand gave the closing keynote at BlogFest yesterday.

Her overarching theme is 'women getting their voices heard' - but she ranges across a wide variety of topics in a brilliantly life-affirming speech. Excellent example is her advice to the audience: "go forward with a bit of righteous indignation". Why yes, yes we will!

Watch it and tell us what you think.

Contains the c-word.

I'm watching her right now (should be doing school work ...)
I really like Jo Brand.
She's an extraordianary, normal lady, if that makes sense!
She's spot on about casual and deeply-rooted sexism.

Would Jo ever do a webchat on here, I wonder?

Ohhh, I love Jo Brand. It would be great if she did a webchat.

She is fabulous - love that she mentioned Getting On, which was brilliant brilliant television and I hope they do another series.

Yy to webchat

MistAllChuckingFrighty · 11/11/2013 12:36

I like what she is saying about women in television, and how they are portrayed/manipulated

I watched this this afternoon, she is fantastic, i'd love to go out for a few pints with her.
And what she said about never minding the put downs, just keep on saying what you have to say over and over.
YYYYYYY to getting her on a webchat.
