I hope Tommy Robinson converts to Islam. It would be quite the plot twist.

Rowan Atkinson's son is a Gurkha. (I'm still reading Ben Elton's autobiography. It's great but long so I need these Wikipedia breaks)

Ben elton's autobiography is brilliant. I forget (dissociate) about how racist and sexist comedy still was when i started. I am hard on myself about my career...I did pretty well considering. And Shazia, who was really up against it as she didn't even binge drink to fit in like I did.

Classic Beat This action at Newington Green’s Mildmay Club last night. Thank you @andyfieldhello.bsky.social @nickhelm.bsky.social @shappikhorsandi.bsky.social @athenakugblenu.bsky.social - and a wonderful audience. Let’s do it all again sometime!

I keep forgetting about bluesky. Hello!

If you ask me, and no one is, JK Rowling has an unhealthy relationship with Twitter.

Oi! #leamingtonspa too good for me are ya??? (Sorry. I love you and need you tomorrow ) #royalspacentre #leamingtoncomedy #leamingtonspacomedy

Caroline Aherne was born in Ealing. Busy day.

People often make assumptions about my Iranian dad, writes @shappikhorsandi.bsky.social - but being from a country that’s constantly misrepresented has given me a lifelong radar for nuance

August is a wonderful hiding place

I was on masterchef years ago...wanted to search what was going on with the latest sacking but spelled his name too many times and gave up.

💚🤍❤️ it was so lovely to meet you xx

People keep texting me to ask how my family are. I appreciate it. They are as below. Love to everyone who is in nightmare of war.

I did a keynote speech yesterday at Warwick university. It went so well. Real connection made. I have a tour show at Warwick Uni tomorrow which has not quite sold out. Did I mention the tour show to the audience yesterday? No. No I did not because I am an idiot. Thank you for your time.

Today I set up my first EVER zoom call, from my own account. Wow. Never felt so grown up since the first time I drove my car on to a car ferry when I was 45. Maybe one day I will understand what an ISA is.

In hospital 12 years ago today. And what a brilliant day we had. Happy birthday to my magical girl ❤️

I love the Rik Mayall Comedy Festival. He was a hero to me. His sister and daughter Bonnie came to my show and I was beside myself happy. It's fun isn't it? this comedy thing.

I swear people seek me out to sit behind when they need to really dedicate time to snorting up mucus.

I had been judgemental about skiing, but it turns out it's a lot like stand-up comedy, writes @shappikhorsandi.bsky.social

Touring with redheads IS more fun @soozuk.bsky.social is smashing at @monmouthsavoy.bsky.social and my competitive spirit means I will also attempt to sing opera during my set.

I have spent a merry half an hour on a train chatting to my son whilst watching him trying to break into our house on the ring doorbell.

I AM MAKING A TASKMASTER CAKE...for my TM obsessed daughter... anyone know a west London baker/bakery who does edible image printing? I don't have the piping skills to do Veteran Typewriter font 😅

He never ever knows when I am kidding 🤣 Very happy for Crystal Palace. Long may they reign.

Soho Walthamstow opening gala was unreal amazing. Huge congratulations to the brilliant and beautiful @sohotheatre team who kept the faith FOR YEARS and made this dream come true 🥰

✨ New online: Why @shappikhorsandi.bsky.social is proud to be friends with her ex-husband's new wife

Had such a lovely chat with @robinince.bsky.social at Tunbridge Wells Literary festival. Well worth the climb us the hill.

London! Come and see me at the Soho Theatre sohotheatre.com/events/shapa...

If you are free tomorrow and like history, this will be a wonderful way to spend the day (I hosting the event at 5pm) histfest.org/histfest-2025/

I forgot about bluesky! Here's a picture of my mum in the 70s to make up for it. I LOVE HER CLOTHES!

I am going to Buckingham Palace today.

Deliberately changed my insta algorithm as I was seeing too much 'BEST VERSION OF YOURSELF' stuff and began to hate the world... now ALL I am seeing in extreme parkour and am typing this with one hand whilst dangling off the Eiffel Tower.

Awww!!! @mrmarksteel.bsky.social is the cutest! #crystalpalacefc

I heard 'Fireaid' as 'Farm aid' and thought it was to raise British farmers cause and I wondered why Green Day and P!nk were doing it. What a confusing few minutes that was.

Facetimed with my mum for ages today as she talked about Patrice Lumumba. I had no idea she knew so much about Congolese history. She said she was obsessed with Lumumba's story at school. She is more like me than I realised.

I LOVED DOING THIS

My piece on the courage of Bishop Budde is in the paper today. The White House has said she “weaponised the pulpit.” By “weaponised”, do we perhaps mean “delivering a sermon as is usual in every church service and therefore doing her actual job”? www.independent.co.uk/voices/trump...

Sunday Times bestselling author Jordan Stephens joined @shappikhorsandi.bsky.social at @hayfestival.bsky.social's #WinterWeekend for a fantastic event on Sunday, making sense of the chaos, in a warm and honest conversation about self-discovery, mental health and ADHD📚🐶 #AvoidanceDrugsHeartbreakDogs

This happened today. Neither are neutered. White girl is my baby, fluffy lothario Benny Hill chased my girl all over the park. What a sight. Vet said they didn't 'lock' so puppies unluckily. Thank goodness as she has a place at Oxford.

He goes so well will make Delboy bar 🥰 @mrmarksteel.bsky.social

Mark and I did @hayfestival in a day yesterday and entertained ourselves at service stations. Poor Gregg Wallace!

Today! This very morning!

If you are @hayfestival.bsky.social this weekend, come see us in a chat with @adamrutherford.bsky.social tomorrow

As a former Masterchef contestant, I am now being contacted by TV folk, yet again, to 'give my thoughts' on a grim man who has been nurtured and rewarded on TV for years. My cheekbones are too beautiful, my charm too abundant to waste my breath on Gregg Wallace thank you.
