I honestly think that it is a crime to Television that such dross gets rolled out week after week and the totally amazing always funny Pam Ann cannot get anything other than Loose Women.

The last two nights were amazing, and about 70% of the show was different on Monday to Sunday, which just goes to show what a brilliant star she is.

I am also glad that Manchester loves her as well, and was proved over the two nights there were straights in 1st Class – really loved Beyonce taking over Air Force One, and the Lady GaGa Bad Romance for the cabin crew.

If I could give 10 stars I would as she bloody well deserves it.

YOU can feel a bit of an anomaly at a Pam Ann show if you’re neither gay nor cabin crew.

The ‘60s throwback trolley dolly with more bile than the average gallbladder has a very distinct and utterly faithful following; consequently one of her gigs, even in a room the size of the Lyric, feels like a private party – and is a whole lot of fun too.

The first half is largely spent getting to know the different airlines represented in the crowd and matching them with their characteristics (all Virgin staff are outright tarts for instance and BA are positively equine).

These stereotypes are so outrageously executed it would be churlish to take offence. To round off the first half they were gathered on to the stage for a demonstration of their walks through the terminal building to the tune of Disco Inferno.

Witticisms

In the second half Pam, issuing barbed witticisms as she went, resurrected a couple of old favourite tricks.

Sashaying down the aisles as the crowd shrank back into their seats in fear, she divided the audience up into the much revered first class, the wannabes seated in business class and sneered at the plebs in economy.

A security search was conducted having half inched a bag from the sweaty palms of a woman in the front row, sorry first class, and was thoroughly rifled through.

The cabin crew gang and other unsuspecting stars of the show, including a particularly cute terrorist, were reunited for the closing, spontaneously choreographed sequence, aptly rounding the night off with a scene camper than Cornwall in the summertime.

Did you go to the show? Why not tell us what you thought.
