My wife's writing a book, her MC's father is Scottish. I told my wife she needs to write in a crazy aunt so that Fern can play her.

Nice to se some new stuff from Fern! Saw here special last week ( Autistic Bikini Queen) That was so good! Man I like her accent so much!

[@mellarius188]

Can’t wait to see you!

[@billhawkins192]

I feel the need to write about a quirky Scottish fish, who has way more than two lines.

[@Jon-k8v]

Awwwwr, better be nice to are wee cheekan! Wee nugget a comedy right there Hen! Fab comedian and Braver than at least 70% Braver than most people, myself included... 💚❤️‍🔥💜🥰

[@mydarkstarshining]

I can't imagine how incredibly hard it must be to take a BIG dream & really work up the courage & determination it takes to follow it. GOOD ON YOU FERN ! YOU ARE VERY VERY SHARP , FUNNY , & DO NOT LOOK ANYTHING LIKE A FUCKIN' POTATO ! Best of luck ! Keep it comin' ! P.S. I think you are genuinely hilarious, witty , gritty , vulnerable , brave , sincere , relatable , & absolutely drop dead gorgeous.

[@echognomecal6742]

We're not coked, we're just glad to be of help to someone who wanted to come visit us! Ok, Some of us are coked. Hi from NY! 🗽

[@lester44444]

The implication is that you guys don't even need to be coked up to be coked up 😂😭

@@lester44444 The implication is obvious, thank you tho.

Coming to Aberdeen to see you, but you should still come to Chicago. I’m 97% Irish and 3% Scottish. :)

[@devoarco]

honestly which cartoon fish movie wouldn't be better with fern brady as a voice actress

[@bigfootpart4therevengeancing]

You guys have "The Last King of Scotland" and "Trainspotting," too. As for confidence, I dunno, I just say to myself, "Today is a good day to die," which calms me.

[@goodguy630]

I'm American and I had to Google what a DEA officer is...

[@elevenseven-yq4vu]

Please help me out so I don't have to.

[@aland7236]

You're either 3 years old, or have lived a very sheltered life. I envy you.

[@ianweniger6620]

HOOTS for the Hibee Taskmaster!

[@Magicalfluidprocess]

She’s very funny , very articulate

[@a-ms9760]

Fern would do the best fish voice ever in my opinion.

[@pierfrancescocosta6336]

Well, Scotland still has the likes of Rod Stewart, Emeli Sandé and Tom Walker, so I guess at least you've got plenty to offer music-wise! 😅😉 Edit: Whoops, I can't believe I forgot about Lewis Capaldi...

[@eclectica1]

Rod Stewart...Scottish...hahahahahaha.

[@elevenseven-yq4vu]

Nazareth!

[@lanternsown3525]

I would've cast Fern as a Mermaid myself.

[@tdbhmusic]

I've lived in the USA for 50 years and struggle with the culture. I'm so different it's depressing because it's hard to keep a job. Not sorry but the insensitive, mechanical way everyone is supposed to go after money with gusto breaks my heart. and the money goes to the guys at the top so...I'm broke and working too hard and keep getting illnesses, so depressing. My boss with a wife at home who sits on his butt and eats and orders people around insists there's no difference between a 10 hour shift and a 12 hour one. And here's me struggling with 6-7 hour shifts busting butt doing all sorts of heavy lifting. He really can't see the difference in our work, or he just doesn't care. good times. I cry a lot. I'm too old for this sh!t.

[@tdbhmusic]

lol @ in america it's be successful or it's fentanyl in a tent

[@sleepychamaeleon]

Maybe move away? Find something else to do?

[@bigfootpart4therevengeancing]

Good luck, bud. I understand.

[@zellah]

I am sorry to say I get it. Moving from Chicago to Aberdeenshire soon and couldn’t be happier

[@13strong]

She forgot heroin addicts. We're portrayed as heroin addicts. And that's when we choose how we're portrayed.

[@abrogard142]

what was that about?

[@it-s-a-mystery]

2 lines fish joke funnier in the context of her only being on stage for 4 minutes. She does a lot with those 4 minutes though imo.

[@JDMimeTHEFIRST]

Don't forget about Trainspotting about heroin addict criminals. Fern should either play the national Scottish animal (the unicorn), or a red squirrel. I see her more as the red squirrel.

[@rinkydinkron]

Love Fern but has she ever said one thing nice about Scotland?😢

[@Amaranthyne]

As Americans, they tell us to be confident (read arrogant pricks) in interviews, and 99.9% of us look at the teachers in disbelief and ask “How the fuck are we supposed to do that?” The remaining 0.1% live on to be recruiters and president.

[@dcmastermindfirst9418]

@@dcmastermindfirst9418 Thank you.

[@dcmastermindfirst9418]

[@beowulf1417]

That opening was met with almost completely dead silence and there was never an outbreak of loud laughter just polite laughter at the right moments, Fern seems like a nice lady but based on her filmed performances her material lacks consistency and for the stages she's performing on the audience reactions are always fairly quiet and subdued.

[@TravelAbventuresUnbound]

Americans have a positive, can do attitude. Scotland on the other hand is cynical, pessimistic and dour. Why I left to live abroad and get some sun.

[@ThursoBerwick]

If all the confident people leave, it's going to stay that way.

[@dons8122]

Yup i was right. I had a feeling after watching her on Task Master she wasn't going to be all that funny and I was right.

Really? Thanks for letting me know. I had been laughing, but as a) humour is objective and b) you have been appointed arbiter of what is and is not funny I will try to do better in future.

[@antelope6826]

Good thing you don’t decide who goes on stage or it would be a bleak world out there 🤣
