FORMER Grange Hill actress Francesca Martinez is bringing her one-woman comedy show to Stratford later this month.

Francesca, who was born with mild cerebral palsy, and therefore says she looks constantly drunk, is unable to do housework or cut her boyfriend's hair, is the latest performer to appear at Stratford Picture House's new Friday night Comedy House slot.

Francesca will be on stage at the Picture House in Windsor Street at 10pm on October 25. Tickets, which cost £10, are available from the box office on 01789 415500.
