show 8pm Chloe Petts, breakout star of Taskmaster S22 (Ch4) and "one of the most compelling young comics" (The Guardian), returns with a new stand-up hour of trademark critically-acclaimed cerebral laddishness. After four successful smash-hit tours, show number five examines Petts’ newfound identity as a Passenger Princess, a tricksy snake called Medusa, and the trials and tribulations of being the only sober one at a Pitbull concert. It's Petts' most honest show yet.  On television and radio, Petts has also appeared on Have I Got News For You (BBC 1), Live at the Apollo (BBC2), Bake Off: An Extra Slice (Channel 4) and has been a regular host on Sky Sports News. In terms of podcasts, Petts has appeared on Off Menu with (Ed Gamble and James Acaster), Shagged. Married. Annoyed. (Chris & Rosie Ramsey), Films to Buried With (Brett Goldstein) and co-hosted The Guilty Feminist alongside Deborah Frances-White. "one of the most accomplished stand-ups working in the UK today" The Scotsman★★★★  "When it comes to comedy Petts is very much Premier League." Evening Standard ★★★★ "[Petts] holds the audience with inventive authority throughout" The Times ★★★★  "hilarious. this is certainly comedy that packs a punch." The I ★★★★★  "it's a hoot" Time Out ★★★★  "has the audience in stitches" Metro ★★★★  "Petts is thriving as a front-foot stand-up" Chortle ★★★★
