She began to perform stand-up comedy whilst working as a researcher for Granada Television, on programmes such as The Mrs Merton Show.

Her first performance was at a club in Chester, a location she chose because it was far enough from home that if it went badly, no one would know her.

As an actress, she made brief appearances in Life's a Pitch and Absolute Power.

She presented a TV commercial for mobile phone company One2One during the year 2000.

The same month, Lucy appeared on Celebrity Mastermind, achieving a record-breaking score of 35 with Steve Martin as her specialist subject.

Porter's marriage at the end of 2009 to her long-term partner, fellow comedian Justin Edwards, led to a substantial re-write of her successful 2009 Edinburgh Festival Fringe show Fool's Gold for her 2010 UK tour.

In the original script, Lucy claimed she was unlikely to ever marry because of an "allergy to gold", meaning she would never be able to put on a wedding ring; on tour, she made a self-deprecating reference to the original material, given that she was then married.
