Fern Brady is releasing her latest show ‘Autistic Bikini Queen’ as a Netflix Original Comedy Special on the 22nd April 2024. Filmed in Bristol, the special features Brady’s last tour show, which had sell-out runs across the UK, Ireland and Australia. Produced by IAM and distributed by Netflix, the special will be available for global release on Netflix.
Fern has said, “This show, despite its title, is 1% about autism and 99% about relationships, marriage and death. I’m delighted my bleak worldview will find a bigger audience on Netflix, but I am sorry that as the first Scottish lady with a Netflix special, it will mislead people into thinking we’re all like this when we aren’t.”
Known for being totally unique and completely fearless, her caustic wit, exceptional writing and electric stagecraft have made Fern one of the UK’s hottest comedy stars. In this special, she'll be tackling big issues such as death, shagging, marriage and ageing. In her typically honest and authentic way Fern is never scared to speak her mind. This show is the culmination of nearly two years of rumination.
Fern was a fan-favourite on Taskmaster (Channel 4) and has appeared on The Russell Howard Hour (Sky One), Frankie Boyle’s New World Order (BBC2) and Live at the Apollo (BBC2) (the first Scottish woman to do so). She is also the award-winning author of the Sunday Times Best Selling book STRONG FEMALE CHARACTER.
Fern is currently on a global tour with her new show, ‘I Gave You Milk to Drink’.
