    Jo, PLEASE start a UA-cam channel where you sit around knitting and drinking tea and eating chocolate with your friends and talk about feminism, your life, your experiences, your career etc. This is not a request...it’s an ORDER! 🙏🏻

    Jo Brand is a national treasure because she's herself. There's no definition for what a national treasure is, other than perhaps our lives would be worse without that person around. I think that's pretty fitting for Jo Brand. She's awesome.

    I have always loved jo as an entertainer in any/every format and she knows that she played a pivotal role in literally pulling me from death's door following a very rare condition that noones ever survived before. I experienced medical miracles throughout my rehabilitation from that illness which are cited now in medical journals and i dont say that to highlight me because that's all about jo and the power she has to be such a positive distraction.I wrote to her expressing my thanks and received such a lovely, hilarious handwritten letter back from her which I had never expected. She's a total star.

    Oh, I was mistaken. Jo Brand is an INTERNATIONAL TREASURE, quite possibly an inter-galactic treasure if it ever comes to that, you know, with branes banging information and entertainment here and there, through space and time. If any comic's thoughts would persist Jo Brand's would. I double dog dare anyone to say not.

    Regarding the perceived limitations of being called "a national treaure," I think of a story that I heard about Dame Judi Dench. Supposedly, she walked in front of a taxi; the driver slammed on the brakes, stuck his head out the window and called her a cow. Without missing a beat, she retorted, "That's DAME Cow to you!" Now THAT is style!
