Fatiha El-Ghorri: Cockney Stacking Doll review – Taskmaster star’s endearing, earthy tour of the East End

Leicester Square theatre, London The comic delivers gags about her life and neighbourhood with choice descriptions and brutal punchlines ‘What comes out of here,” says Fatiha El-Ghorri, indicating her mouth, “and this” – how she presents to the world – “don’t match.” From that contrast – a kindly-seeming woman in a hijab peddling gobby East End standup – this Taskmaster graduate and rising standup star draws much of her comic power.

Ben Crump says $4.85m police settlement over fatal traffic stop helps to show how ‘truth must always come to light’ “No amount of money can erase” the pain that motorist Ronald Greene’s death at the hands of Louisiana police inflicted on his loved ones, but a $4.85m settlement which the state has agreed to pay his family helps illustrate how “the truth must always come to light”, their attorney has said. Ben Crump recently expressed those sentiments in a statement that served as one of his and his clients’ first public reactions to news first reported by the Guardian that mediation talks on 12 May had yielded a settlement between Louisiana authorities and Greene’s family.
