63 - Eleanor Tiernan

Nearly two years ago, I spoke to Eleanor Tiernan on the eve of her then Edinburgh Fringe show. In that time, Eleanor has gone on to perform all around the UK and Ireland as well as starring in the satirical RTE sketch show "Irish Pictorial Weekly" and as part of the hand-picked line-up of Stewart Lee's "Alternative Comedy Experience" on Comedy Central. This August, she brings her show "Help the Frigid" to the Counting House at the Edinburgh Fringe each night at 8.15pm. I talk to her about the theme of the show, the writing process and how a show like Irish Pictorial Weekly is put together.
