  • Is Shappi Iranian? I'm quite surprised as she hardly ever mentions it.

  • Most of the people that are complaining are way too PC - they should lighten up abit, you guys are the reason you can't call someone ginger, or have a joke, because you guys find it offensive, now shut the fu*ck up and watch the clip - or leave the page!

  • i like her she's good and she plays the race jokes without being offensive

  • Straight Face... :/

  • I don't get the last joke :(

  • @meldme What commedian isn't predictable. Al Murry is always talking about chips and beer. Whenever I see Jack Whitehall he goes on about sex.

  • @meldme it annoys me so fucking bad....i hate it when they play the "race card"

  • @AlexanderT21 - What do you mean? - mention she is Iranian or do 5 minutes of standup without mentioning it? If you are referring to the latter then, yes, if she wants to keep her material fresh, some restraint on her geographical 'comedy' would help her act.

  • @meldme Should she have to?

  • @TheBooghalamoon It's called sarcasm,

  • @Boyfromasension - shes mainly talking about her Iranian background, so its not racist really. i mean, thats like calling an English person racist for slating the English..

  • @TheBooghalamoon - Yes, I was being ironic. I've never seen Shappi do more than 5 minutes of standup without referring to her Iranian heritige. If she was to cut out the Iranian material, she would be on stage for about, well, 5 minutes. Lovely girl, but a bit too predictable.
