Each week on It's your Funeral Lorna and Dan (aka the death fairies) arrange the perfect death and funeral (in the style of a game show!) for a comedian in the UK. Guests include tv comedy actors, sitcom writers, renowned television writers, stand-up comedians and recent Edinburgh fringe performers.
In Episode 4, Lorna and Dan are joined by Stand Up Comedian, Sara Barron.

She was nominated for ‘Best Newcomer’ at the Edinburgh Comedy Awards and at the Chortle Awards, as well as receiving rave reviews from publications including The Times, The Guardian, The Independent, The Evening Standard and The Scotsman!
