Hi everyone welcome to this week's episode of no such thing as a fish

Anna Tashinsky is still off on her hollybobs and so we have for you a very, very special guest. It is Melanie Bracewell.

Now those of you down under will know who Melanie is. She is a regular on television in Australia and New Zealand.

She's recently been on New Zealand Taskmaster.

If anyone outside of New Zealand does naughtily

manage to get hold of that on the tubes. You'll know her from that, but we've actually known Mel for many, many years. We've first met her when we did our New Zealand tour many years ago. We've been wanting to get her on the

podcast for ages and ages and finally she is in the UK and she came on the show.

And actually that brings me to the fact that she is touring the UK at the moment.

So if you listen to this podcast, you like what you hear, I know you will, because she's absolutely brilliant,

she's so funny, then definitely get down to one of her gigs you'll have to get in

their fast because she is already right in the middle of that tour but if you listen

to this as soon as it comes out then you just about have enough time to get to

her gigs in Stafford, Edinburgh, Glasgow,

London, Cambridge and Birmingham. That's all happening in the next week or so.

And of course if you are in Australia or New Zealand, then she's doing loads of gigs down there.

And actually in the UK she'll be back to do the Edinburgh Festival in the summer.
