Jo Brand is wearing black again: Trinny and Susannah will be very disappointed. After enduring the ritual humiliation that was the duo's makeover show, the cake-loving comic has evidently decided that her trademark outfit didn't need changing after all.

Generally, Brand's new set follows the same "ain't broke, don't fix it" principles. Sure, marriage and motherhood seem to have softened the stand-up formerly known as The Sea Monster, but those expecting jokes about chocolate, housework and the trouble with men wouldn't have been disappointed by Sunday night's show, the first performance in a Scottish mini-tour.

Support act Andy Robinson struggled slightly to connect with the senior crowd, but there were some promising glimmers in his act. His idea about applying the principal of the blooper reel to other art forms could be developed into a great piece of extended silliness, and committing wholeheartedly to his final sequence of gross-out toilet humour was a gamble that paid off.

For Brand, writing sharp new material doesn't seem to have been a top priority lately - understandably, since she has two young children to run after and reality TV shows to appear on (she's a strong supporter of Comic Relief but feels that a visit to Africa would be "a bit unfair").

And anyway, her wonderfully scathing delivery generates laughs even when her material isn't at its strongest or most original - the woes of a sleep-deprived parent, for instance, or a proposal for page four of The Sun. But an eye-watering running gag about intimate plastic surgery gives the show a lift - and provides the onstage sign-language interpreter with a unique challenge.
