Su, 68, is known for her eccentric style, “I remember going to C&A when I was four and knowing exactly what I wanted. I will happily wear a tie with a dress if I think it will work”.

Su can’t drive, “I’d be a boy racer. I couldn’t stand the responsibility of driving and journeys of more than 40 minutes bore me rigid!”.

‘Years ago people would snigger at my outfits, now they want pictures with me’

The comedy actress and performer, 68, on why young people are so fabulous, performing in Vegas, and why she’d never slum it in tracksuit bottoms…

Su Pollard, you won’t be surprised to learn, knows how to make an entrance. She greets us like a long-lost relative.

She’s wearing a mini dress covered in black sequins decorated with four necklaces (red beads, a golden one with a silver motif, two jangly, chunky ones), a black velvet jacket covered in bling, beading and fringing and – our favourite bit – a bow with a picture of Snow White on it in her very short hair.

“It’s just what you’d wear to go to Sainsbury’s. Which I do,” she exclaims.
