Episode 06 - Aisling Bea

Desert Island Crisps

Look who’s washed up on our shores this episode, it’s none other than actor, stand-up comedian and writer extraordinaire Aisling Bea.

If Aisling can’t find her way off this god-forsaken island the entertainment industry will grind to a complete standstill…

The Ch4 commissioned series she’s writing with Emmy nominated Sharon Horgan won’t get written.

8 Out Of 10 Cats will be looking for a new team captain. Show’s like Qi (BBC1), Taskmaster (Dave), 8 Out of Ten Cats Does Countdown (Ch4), James Corden’s A League of Their Own (Sky), The Big Fat Quiz of Everything (Ch4), @Midnight (Comedy Central) and The Last Leg (Ch4) will be sending out search parties for their missing regular guest.

She’ll miss her first Netflix special which airs in August.

Accolades like the the prestigious So You Think You’re Funny? award and the British Comedy Award for Best Female TV Comedian will just be gathering dust on her mantlepiece.

The producers of Live At The Apollo (BBC1), The Stand Up To Cancer Great British Bakeoff (Ch4), The Jonathan Ross Show (ITV), Would I Lie To You? (BBC1), Insert Name Here (BBC), Never Mind The Buzzcocks (BBC), Sunday Brunch (Ch4), Russell Howard’s Good News (BBC3) and Ch4’s live 9 hour Alternative Live Election will be thanking their lucky stars that she appeared on their shows before she went AWOL.

We could go on, but we won’t. Instead we’ll just talk about crisps for about an hour…
