I have followed Shelley Cooper’s Fringe career for some time now and never quite know what I am going to get. Last year Geoff went to see Shelley just to prove we are not overtly biased. Shelley is back at the Espionage as part of the Free Fringe with her new show  ‘Britishness’. In a packed room Shelley starts off with a little of her own ethnic origins, she then goes on a whistle stop history lesson just showing how pure "British" blood is. From Celts, Romans Saxons, Normans etc etc etc. Some of her comments may strike fear and doubt in rightwing factions. Far from being a history of ethnicity this is a very, very funny show. I am delighted to say this was one of the best Shelley gigs I have had the pleasure of being at this lady really rocked. She did have one or two chatterers and a slightly drunk lady determined to join in but dealt with them superbly. ****
