She's a regular on Just a Minute. I don't really know her from anywhere else, but she's pretty good value on that – a professional turn.

There is something a little annoying about her, but she's good at what she does.

Occasionally talking for a whole minute about a subject without deviation, repetition or hesitation.

So many particulars. So many questions.
didn't she have a sidekick. What happened to the sidekick.

Mel.
I think she is very talented and witty in her humour. She also won a competition to be an orchestral conductor on a television programme. I saw her in series about food in history in which she showed a deal of improvised humour. I also find her attractive, but that is pointless because she is in a relationship with another woman.

if it wasn't for that you'd be in there for certain sure.

That's my point. She appears in programs about everything. Space aliens attacking - guest Sue Perkins. Mexicans with baldness problems - guest: Sue Perkins. Welcome the new year underwater - guest Sue Perkins.

Mel got married and had some babies. She recently was back on telly with sue presenting The Great British Bake Off.
True fact: when they presented Light Lunch back in 1998 Dermot O'Leary was the audience warm-up man.
Also, Mel used to go out with Graham Linehan, writer of Father Ted.

By way of belated research into this topic I went to her myspace page. She says under the heading "Who I'd like to meet:"...
Anyone who uses the word lol when communicating by email or text. Plus, the person who can bring me Condeleeeeeeza Rice's head on a bed of wilted roquette.
er... that well known green leafy salad item never spelled as "roquette"?
She'll be eating orberjeans next.

I'm quite pleased I don't watch tv now. She's perfectly good on Just a Minute.
(As is Graham Norton, who appears to be quite objectionable on tv.)

Sue Perkins is obviously Renaissance Woman.

You're obsessed, man.
You love her , really.
The fact she has more than a passing resemblance to Mrs Chap has nowt to do with it.

Mel?. For ages it looked like big Mel was the breakaway double act winner but I think Sue has taken the lead in the last lap.
They had their own 6pm show and shit like that. Thats punt and dennis big time stylie.

Thinks she is a flower to be looked at
Agree. She also did a wonderful documntary a out a shocking Lesbian diarist...
Leave her alone, she was very funny on that good life programme and on most other things I've seen or heard her in, though admittedly I haven't exactly followed her career....
She's also much better since that double act with the blonde woman disintegrated. Now that was annoying.

Graham Norton's really good on Just a Minute. You should stick to radio.
I'm a 95% radio 5% television kind of guy.
But let's stamp on this Graham Norton just a minute fan cult rightaway - Brandreth, Merton, MacAulay, Izzard, Slattery, Brydon, Garden - all far better than the ex-bartender.

The names I used to look out for were Merton and Freud. Beyond that, tbh, as long as Wendy Richards wasn't on, I didn't really care. Giles Brandreth stretches my patience, but is occasionally good.
I've never heard Slattery on it. Or Garden.
