Description
Where are you really from? Pam gets asked this on a daily basis, due to her strong Aussie accent, she sounds nothing like where she was born, Birmingham England. London-living and loving comedian Pam was once a ten-pound Pom who bounced between UK and Oz. A fun, uplifting storytelling show about surviving lack of confidence, 70s pop, fashion and, of course, Spam sandwiches. A prequel to Don't You Dare! Put me in a Care Home – her Scotsman-reviewed multi four-star show. 'Perfect blend of Dave Allen and your hilarious Auntie' (Adelaide audience review).Please note that while all media gallery content is provided by verified members of the event, the Edinburgh Festival Fringe Society does not review or approve this content before it is posted.

Pam Ford shares with us colourful tales of a life well-lived, with callbacks that had us giggling like old friends, and a message to not live in fear.

Whilst Spam is often ridiculed as being of a consistent blandness, Pam Ford is not.
She is a rich mix of exotic flavours and experiences, which combine to provide both a comedic feast in this show, but also some poignant reminders of the not so distant past.
Plus she's a lovely lady too.

I loved this show. Pam is warm and funny and her story is so interesting. There are some great twists and poignant moments that make you think.
