It’s been a busy few weeks for Grace Campbell.

She has just finished a spell at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival, having honed her new stand-up show Grace Campbell Is On Heat (which she will take on a 29-date tour across the UK and Ireland — but more on that later); she has also written, directed, and recorded a short film, Don’t Hate Me (more on that later too); and in July she launched a new podcast, Late to the Party with Grace Campbell.
