Not many acts could have pulled off an opening series of gags based on Friday’s horrific events in the French capital.

But Aussie comedienne Caroline Reid has always been an in-your-face kind of girl and she clearly has a loyal following in these parts that would willingly lap up this kind of acid humour.

“I was talking about Paris Hilton,” she somewhat atoned.

References to ISIS frequently popped up in her show, which at moments became a glammed-up act of defiance from the self-styled Queen Of The Sky.

Also featuring strongly were brilliantly doctored clips from “Downton Galley” with Pam engaging in wickedly absurd conversations with the likes of Maggie Smith and Hugh Bonneville.

Not many within the airline business escaped her vicious tongue – from easyJet staff to snooty BA Worldwide crew. She quite flippantly made fun of people left, right and centre and her fellow Aussies at Qantas didn’t escape either.

Employees of the world’s airlines were viciously stereotyped, which was OK in these parts because Pam herself is a brilliant stereotype of the glamorous, over-sexed, over-indulging, strikingly defiant personality that lurks within much of her audience.
