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.”
妮娜还是漂亮的，但这片是真的怪。我不知道女主是真的喜欢男主，还是喜欢男主家人带来的氛围感，反正在男主的假求婚之后还能跟男主在一起是我想不到的
属于圣诞电影里面好看的耶。可能是欧阳演的超级自然，超级可爱的。就是能不能换个发型啊，明明长得不难看。
虽然有点凑数圣诞电影，不过小而温馨却是难得！一般很难看到亚裔和白人凑cp主角，男主看着普通演技不错，女主怎么感觉这两年长歪了，以前贼美！
是有趣的，探讨了一个爱情中表层谎言和深层谎言的话题。结局有点夸张但是考虑到是圣诞主题，合家欢的happy ending也是可以接受的。
圣诞电影啥时候能get over love actually 🙏🏻
“Josh，30，Candle Maker” 这很酷
從頭到尾都是濃濃的「算法電影」的味道，甚是平庸了無新意，直接搬了《真愛至上》的經典橋段，但沒有很好的運用，片名也起得夠水的。
this is nothing Asian about this movie other than some Asian faces
我永远爱看圣诞小妞电影！！童年美剧靓妹演圣诞小品非常合适，但欧阳就？？？网飞爱情轻喜剧难道什么人都能演男主角吗？？ 当女主夸他眼睛好看的时候…我真的太迷惑了！
有正常思维的人给这部电影打五星一定有它自己的原因
欧阳万成就是米国人专门挖掘出来做雅洲男小丑代言人吧
这部片针对华人群体，大数据显示nina的吸血鬼日记在华人群体中受众极大。网飞就这么通过大数据确定了女主角？特别强调女主交往过very good in bed的beijinger，这是在对抗什么stereotype大家心知肚明，就是有点太过刻意。整体来说就是部俗到不行的爽文。
故事套路，但很感激银幕上黄白配逐渐多了起来，颜值正义的当下美颜p是对的，否则连见光死的机会都么有哈
爱情小品，总之还不错，女主的颜值稍微有点崩，不过不算太影响，主要没有想到的是欧阳万成的演技挺不错的。
2021.11.23 Love Actually: Best Christmas movie ever! 沒其他想說了。
艰难地看了半小时并不是很看得下去 且把darren barnet拍丑了 我直接放弃
电车男和大美女真的太违和了，看不下去。这男演员完全可以眼一些科幻题材的片子，为啥硬要演爆谷爱情片？看这种片的人（例如我）就是想看个帅哥美女上演烂俗情节，我做错了什么？如果是奈飞想讨好中国观众的话，就太错了
典型的圣诞电影，very predictable
再怎么心灵契合但美女配挫男这种事看着还是很不爽……妮娜还是美。达伦大帅哥完全工具人
Killing time for Christmas Eve 🎄🎄
