The Trawl Meets: Rosie Holt & Rosie Holt MP

The Trawl

In this episode of The Trawl Meets, Jemma and Marina meet someone best known for her incredibly convincing parody videos of a desperately loyal Tory MP shamelessly defending the latest Government scandal... The one and only, Rosie Holt.

Jemma and Marina talk to the award-winning satirist about her journey into comedy and the twist of fate that saw her become an overnight sensation. 

There's talk and clips of her alter ego, Harriet Langley-Swindon, who bears an uncanny likeness to a certain Julia Hartley-Brewer and discuss how her comedy has changed now it's Tories out and Labour in.

Then comes the second half of the episode, where Rosie Holt MP makes an appearance and is quizzed about the real reasons for her crossing the floor from Conservative to Labour, whether she still backs Brexit and how she can look her constituents in the eye. 

Needless to say, Jemma and Marina were not impressed.

You can catch Rosie over on Instagram at @rosieisaholt and grab a copy of her new book from Rosie Holt MP named: Why we were right here: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Why-Were-Right-Rosie-Holt/dp/1529924553
