The last laugh

Sara Pascoe has been insulted by Hugh Grant, not once but twice – but she had the last laugh. The comedian was booked by Hugh’s friends, who wanted acts they thought he wouldn’t enjoy. Nice! ‘The joke was, he wouldn’t want to listen to a woman talking about feminism,’ Sara explains. She was invited to his next party as a guest, but it turned out the theme was ‘people Hugh thinks are mad’. Still, Sara didn’t care. ‘It was the best party I’ve ever been to,’ she said.
