I do wonder if She was a He would this thread exist? There seems to be less leeway given to women comedians than men.

She is quite witty and quick with ad libs. She was one of the Strictly contestants but got voted out two weeks ago. She was criticised severely by the gay community for dancing with Kevin Clifton.
I went to see Katherine Ryan in Brighton last month, I was really disappointment. You do not like men, men are all ********, we get it. YAWN.

I don't watch any of that TV, but harangued for dancing with someone?

I must admit that I had never heard of her or even then had any idea of what she did to be a celebrity when she first appeared on Strictly. I think public sympathy kept her in the contest longer than she should have been as she was an awful dancer continually bleating on about her wife watching and encouraging her.

Dancing with a man. It seems the gay community thought she was betraying them.

I enjoyed seeing Katherine Ryan but in the same way I would enjoy a non league game of Football. She was pretty sharp when she interacted with the audience but her scripted stuff wasn't great.
I have also seen Rob Beckett and Greg Davies this year just another level. Premier League.
Same here even with a photo I have no idea who she is

I forgot about the kids tv stuff, she's very good on that quiz show.

Oh my.
Don't bet on it. I thought we'd reached peak Michael McIntyre in about 2010 but here he still f**king is...

She was great on the BBC1 quiz The Boss. That's where I first saw her.

She can be very funny when she isn't banging on about the lesbian stuff.
Same as a lot of comedians, they can be very preachy, judgy or just boring by constantly going on about their sex or colour. Like all other professions, I dont care what orientation they are as long as they can do the job.

Spot on, when she went off script she was excellent.

2017 has certainly been The Year Of The Scottish Lesbian.
From Susan Calman on "Strictly Come Dancing", to Kezia Dugdale in "I'm a Celebrity Get Me Out of Here" to Ruth Davidson reviving the Tories north of the border - a right Caledonian Fist-Off.
