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.”
我就是喜欢这样的电影！
除了民事和刑事审判，芝加哥七君子发现美国还有一个叫政治审判的手段吊在每个不听话的公民头上；面对强权，个体又能如何？美国让人佩服的也就是它自身给自身纠正和对其的约束留下了空间，所以不会一路走到黑。“你是否蔑视你的政府？”“与我的政府对我的蔑视相比，我的蔑视不足一提！”蔑视和爱一样，不会无缘无故产生也不会无缘无故消失，无缘无故迷恋自己的国家、政府和民族——在我看来——都有问题！
真的好想看一次现场。
开始还以为是揭露美国司法黑暗的片子，哪里知道人家司法体系居然真有纠错机制，堂堂大总统想定几个老百姓的罪居然都定不下来。公正的法律的重要性，大多数人大概只有在自己被审判的时候才能体会到。
机长的演唱太精彩了，印象最深刻的一个角色，演技很棒，寓意也很好，非常有爱的一部音乐剧
这次没有被Sorkin的台词量击倒~群像很好看，每个人的性格刻画得很到位，然后给几个重点人物分别安排高光时刻，抛开含带的zz因素，这首先是个很工整的剧本，然后由很靠谱的演员把它很漂亮地完成了。Sacha是个好演员，Michael Keaton气场好足一出场我就爱了，最后庭审念名单虽然是预料之中的煽情时刻，但理应show some respect for the fallen.
那个每天孜孜不倦写下阵亡将士的名字的乖孩子才是真正的“不忘初心”。尽管看法不同、赞同的斗争手段也不同，七君子和辩方律师有共同的愿望和对美国体系的信任。然而他们个人还是沦为了政治的牺牲品、在如今这个更加复杂、更加令人手足无措的世界里，艾伦·索金想让我们听到他们的声音，但那声音是多么微弱。
他相信“这个国家的民主制度是极好的”，却不幸有了一些坏人当权把控，但“每隔四年就会有一次推翻重来的机会”，所以对照如今，恐怕他说的机会已经到了，那就让我们拭目以待一切会不会在BD手中变好呢？
我们不悲观，憧憬着2035吧，前两天的公报说那时的中国也将建成法治国家、法治政府、法治社会…
无聊至极，白左对极右的无力回击。一看到同志亦凡人的暴论我就无法克说，豆瓣真就开始和阿B、逼乎等一样全员降智，暴论迭出呗。
无与伦比。完美的舞台剧。
热评给我看笑了。无可挑剔的台词被说成匠气，音乐一般带着激情又优美律动的剪辑被说成凌乱，只能说这种观众配不上Sorkin。单单是Dave在法庭上无意识打了警察然后不停道歉就值得本信徒再看100遍。
甘德人民在突发情况下热情接待各地旅客，人人之间相互信任，多么美好
让我大受震撼！舞台剧的魅力！全程沉浸其中！
教科书级别的剪辑，以及这一大票演员的出色演出

情绪饱满的最后宣判一幕与《辩护人》遥相呼应，我深呼吸好几口气才把眼泪压下去。并不巧合的是，两片讲的都是政府蓄意给普通公民思想定罪的故事。
愿世界和平愿世界美好。
Phoenix Theatre, London, 4 Nov 2021. 疫情之后看这个剧还真是很有强心剂作用，大家唱得真好啊！
