Update - TX confirmed for Wednesday 24th February at 10:45pm, and available on BBC iPlayer from Sunday 21st February.
Rose has kissed nearly ten men in her life, AKA she’s a total 'horndog'. Her brand new special of critically applauded stand-up is whirlwind of mid-20s angst and fizzing obsession which enjoyed successful sell-out performances around the world, before making its television debut on HBO Max in the U.S. last year.
