Sue began her career as one quarter of double act Mel and Sue. They first found fame on Channel Four?s daytime show, Light Lunch, which ran for five series before transferring to an evening slot with the imaginatively titled, Late Lunch. Together they jumped, shouted and gurned through countless hours of television, marking the start of a double act that has lasted for seventeen years. Mel and Sue have appeared in five national tours and six Edinburgh festivals, played netball on Room 101, dressed up as Elaine Paige and Barbara Dickson for Celebrity Stars in their Eyes and been propositioned, twice, by Michael Bolton.

Sue has written for French and Saunders and Ab Fab , as well as countless radio series. As a solo performer, she presented three series of the Sky film show, Movie Babylon , and two series of Good Evening Rockall for BBC3. Sue is a regular contributor to Have I Got News For You (BBC1) Newsnight Review (BBC2), Never Mind the Full Stops (BBC4), Clive Anderson?s Chat Room, It?s Been A Bad Week (Radio 2) Just a Minute, The News Quiz, Heresy, The Personality Test (Radio 4).

Over the last two years, Sue has written two full-length stand-up shows, Spectacle Wearer of the Year and The Disappointing Second Show , which have toured extensively to sellout crowds, and been crowned, officially, The World?s Greatest Liar in a hard fought contest in a pub in Cumbria.

Most recently. Sue dressed up for the BBC4 documentary, Edwardian Supersize Me , where she ate thirty courses a day in whalebone corsetry. This has been commissioned for a series by BBC2, which means Sue will spend most of the next six months in a truss eating quail.

Sue is writing a novel, which she began a decade ago, and expects to finish sometime in 2035.
