London Hughes: To Catch a D*ck is a stand-up routine by the British comedian London Hughes. Largely about sex, Hughes recounts stories about her mother and grandmother having children at a young age, her career as an adult chat host and then a children's presenter, and her sexual experiences.
The show received critical acclaim at the 2019 Edinburgh Festival Fringe, with reviewers praising her energy, the humour in her stories, and commentary on gender roles and race. For her performance, Hughes became the first black nominee in the Edinburgh Comedy Award for Best Comedy Show. The routine was subsequently filmed as a Netflix special, with Kevin Hart serving as producer; Hughes moved from the U.K. to Los Angeles to film the special. It was delayed due to the COVID-19 pandemic and released on 22 December 2020.
