The bitch is back! Live and Uncensored…
One of Loose Women’s most outspoken panellists has announced her biggest SOLO tour to date for 2025, AND the first since 2006 – ‘Janet Street-Porter Off The Leash’.
“She’s warm. She’s irreverent. And she’s bloody funny!” THE GUARDIAN
From a bolshy child with a Welsh-speaking budgie to a National Treasure, Janet Street-Porter’s life (and language) has always been colourful. As a broadcaster, television executive and newspaper editor she was at the forefront of some of Britain’s most enduring cultural moments.
Now, in 2025 she finds herself with a senior railcard and 4 ex-husbands. The nation’s favourite pissed-off pensioner brings comedy, tragedy and gossip in equal measure, a tour de force rant against growing old gracefully. Often imitated but rarely equalled, in the words of her good friend Elton, “the bitch is back”!
Experience Janet Street-Porter live and undiluted where she talks about her remarkable PASSIONS and NUMEROUS dislikes! The audience will also have the chance to ask Janet questions about her incredible life.
“Hold on to your hats! This show will be pretty cathartic for me- a deep dive into the subjects that can be hard to chat about truthfully on live television – from my tormented relationship with my mum to what really happens when a relationship runs out of steam. I’ll be brutally honest about the highs and lows of a helter skelter life well lived. And it’s not over yet!”
