One family, one condition, one hell of a hairy baby… Scott Bennett (from Live at the Apollo and The News Quiz) tells the amazing true story of how his daughter fell ill with a rare genetic condition, congenital hyperinsulinism (CHI). Never heard of it? Neither had Scott and Jemma.
‘What’s so rare and satisfying is how all the jokes go hand in hand with the seriousness of the situation. It’s a wonderfully hopeful, often hilarious show from a properly funny man’ The Times ★★★★
Yes, it’s a story about an ill baby, but it’s a very funny one with a happy ending, as new parents Scott and Jemma fight to get the right diagnosis for their daughter and are plunged into months of bewildering treatment, sleepless nights, celebrity encounters and bizarre side effects.
‘Comedy’s best kept secret‘ Evening Standard ★★★★
As heard on the Parenting Hell podcast.
TV/radio includes The Royal Variety Performance and an upcoming Radio 4 Special.
