I remember clearly thinking on one of the early Storm offensive sets that it was going to be great to see Sue and Dawn playing against one another.
Two seconds later, Dawn pulled a jab move on Sue, stole the ball and was off and running.
Sue ended the game with a better overall stat line than Dawn and she turned the tables somewhat in the second half by being more aggressive with the ball and scoring over Dawn, but I think Sue will be remembering those first couple of turnovers more than the later baskets.

Returning to stand-up properly after her, thus far, 17-year partnership with Mel Giedroyc, Perkins approaches the challenge with great gusto, and all her huffing and puffing pays off at times.
Furthermore, linking phrases within routines are prone to be exaggerated; eg, that she "wandered the plains of America like a lost cowgirl" after she left the ET ride at Universal Studios.
All the while, though, Perkins prowls the stage and with her bouncy persona looks as if she could push extra mileage out of her material.
