With the imminent release of Rose Matefeo’s brand new romcom Starstruck on BBC Three at the end of April, this coming year marks a watershed moment in broadcasting history with most BBC Three comedy either starring, written by or created by women. BBC Three will be the first UK channel to achieve this landmark in female representation with 58% of long-form scripted comedy written by women.
Upcoming titles include Lazy Susan, Starstruck and Ellie and Natasia plus the second series of both In My Skin and Back to Life.
In addition to this, the BBC today announces four new BBC Comedy Slices for BBC Three, all of which are written by and/or star female talent: Ladybaby, Amicable, Dinosaur and Britney, which results in the majority of comedy programmes on BBC Three now being female led.
Kate Daughton, outgoing Head of Comedy at the BBC, says: “Building on the huge success of Phoebe Waller-Bridge and Daisy May Cooper, this marks a monumental achievement and is testament to the fact the most pioneering and exciting new voices in comedy are increasingly female.”
Kate leaves the Comedy Commissioning team today having made a tremendous impact overseeing a raft of female first titles. Since Kate’s arrival in 2017 she has commissioned and nurtured Fleabag, Mum, Ghosts, Gavin & Stacey: Christmas Special (2019), This Time With Alan Partridge, Back to Life, The Goes Wrong Show, Out of Her Mind, Two Doors Down, In My Skin and Man Like Mobeen. Alongside the forthcoming Witchfinder, Alma’s Not Normal and Stephen Merchant series The Offenders (w/t).
Shane Allen, Director of BBC Comedy, says: “Five years ago there were still articles asking where all the funny women were. That hoary old nonsense can finally be dispensed with once and for all. It’s a level playing field with the most vibrant and dynamic work coming through from females writers and writer performers who are elevating the art form of comedy and expanding its horizons. As for Kate Daughton, no longer will she curse at me for loud sneezing in the office. Partly because she’s leaving and mostly because we’ve not been in the office. Truly bereft; in denial that she’s off and we’re lucky to have had her for so long.”
Charlotte Moore, Chief Content Officer, says: “Kate’s impeccable taste, whip smart comedy brain and beguiling ways with talent have had a transformative impact on the comedy output in her time here. The fact that BBC Three can claim to be the first UK channel with a majority of female led and written scripted comedy is in large part down to her vision and passion for backing genre defining female creatives. She’ll be sorely missed but thankfully leaves behind a terrific legacy of shows ahead.”
The guy is just a drama Queen! Also he is really not good looking.
同志版的灰姑娘的故事，结局是美好的，而且还是双份的。里面的亚裔受略娘了一些，几个亚裔演员整体的状态也不像30出头的 更像奔40的。适合下饭的小电影，看着很欢乐
netflix对本片的关键字adventurous&suspenseful，感觉被骗了。
昨晚看的，为啥评分那么低啊？因为剧情还是因为演技？本人没啥评论能力，只觉得确实蛮搞笑的，而且私以为也很接地气。希望未来社会更加进步（即使不接受也麻烦不要批判别人）过好自己的日子，喝自己的茶吧，吃什么别人的瓜呀😁
没有报很大希望和老公一起看的，结果还真的挺无聊的。太忙太乱了，大半部电影我都在问谁是Charlie？谁是Max（结果人家叫Rex）。这种当代爱情喜剧我一般当“云旅游”片子看，看看风景和各种室内空间也挺有趣的，这部也没看到啥。奔着Margaret Cho去看的，结果戏份很少。看完才发现John Roberts有客串，还专门倒带回去看哈哈。
好久没看到这么欢乐的同志电影了…第一次觉得《Sometimes》这么好听，Brithey真gay icon！
cliche又怎么样呢，文学nerd不能站起来吗！！！呃，我觉得现在的语境反而扼杀了很多本质主义的东西，或许也是多元化导致的？似乎两者总有一些冲突。不同和相同总是矛盾和统一的综合体……
怎么2022了还是这用套路啊，gay喜剧能不能有点新意。
男同性恋你们聚在一起真的吵死了！而且永远会有数不清的drama！不过你们疯疯癫癫的绝望式乐观精神真的很好笑
很棒的喜剧，恋爱和一场fling的区别在哪呢，都是两个互相喜欢的人创造一些回忆
……《逍遥法外》里面那个感染者gay怎么跑这里来了，好久不见，Oliver。还有男主朋友是人五吧😅感觉好像
gay+亚裔版《傲慢与偏见》，看得还是挺欢乐的
没看到 但是想要个这样的岛 只有LGBT
感觉回到之前看美剧寻的感觉，很喜欢看这些与自己反差很大的角色，“热情”又有“生命力”是我所缺失的。
兰尼斯特居然不救大儿子，这可不对劲啊！至于电影，拍的没有什么的波澜，没有把物资短缺的感觉拍出来
编剧差点事儿，人物情感缺乏支撑。noah这个角色设定很有意思，他是有一定资本实现圈层跨越的，howie临走之前说noah知道这个世界是怎么运行的，简单的打打气真的不够，一语道破真谛。
很奇怪，两对人物关系中都各自只有一个人能令人相信，Howie的脆弱和Will的别扭，相比之下Noah只是泡水的手机，而Charlie甚至不如那艘被偷来的水上巴士。
典同专属？？？就很boring～通讯录的vacation和emo梗依旧这么扁平化吗？btw典同派对的音乐一如既往的烂～
期望就是一部闹哄哄的美式网络电影，meet了这个期望就行
这打光黑的时候👻都看不清，推动情节发展的不是剧情，鬼知道是fxxking什么鬼东西…每个人物都功能化扁平的不行～
