Early-life:
Born Sarah Jane King on May 29, 1975, in South Shields. She was raised in what she describes as a typical working-class household. Married at 22, she hoped to become a playwright.

She has appeared as a panellist on 8 Out of 10 Cats, Have I Got News for You, You Have Been Watching and as a performer at The Secret Policeman's Ball 2008 and 4 Stands Up. She was featured in the Manchester edition of Michael McIntyre's Comedy Roadshow, broadcast in June 2009, and provided vocal work to the BBC's natural history footage for Walk on the Wild Side. She briefly joined the Loose Women panel in January 2011 and launched her own show, The Sarah Millican Television Programme, in 2012.
