I didn't know Fern Brady when I tuned into this Netflix special. My usual caveat with comics appearing on these shows is how vulgar most of them are with the language they revert to in order to get a laugh. Brady used expletives a few times, but it wasn't overdone. What brought my attention to this program was the 'Autistic Bikini Queen' tag attached to the special. After only a few minutes, I wasn't able to affirm that she was really autistic, even though she mentioned it a number of times. Her delivery was impeccably smooth, moving from one idea to the next without hesitation and with complete control of her routine. Being Scottish though, and using some distinctly British colloquialisms, I think American audiences might be left in the dark on some of her bits. As for her Bristol audience, the camera didn't pan across the people in attendance, so it wasn't really possible to get a fix on how she was being received. From what one could see, the front row of principally women seemed attentive but inert in reaction to her jokes. There were a few laugh out loud moments for this viewer, but I couldn't tell how her subject matter was getting over in person. After a first look, I think I might tune into another one of her specials if there is one, though for many I think she would be an acquired taste.
