Deep dives
Honey Suckle Island and Mastermind
Harriet Kemmsley's latest stand-up show, Honey Suckle Island, explores the beauty industry, having a baby, and the idea of role models. However, her appearance on Mastermind didn't go as planned. She studied hard for the show and initially wanted to do The American Office, but was assigned the topic of sloths instead. Despite her diligent preparation, she struggled during the episode, getting her name, job, and charity wrong. This led to a loss of confidence and difficulty answering the sharing-knowledge questions.
