BBC Unveils 10-Strong Comedy Slate Featuring Diane Morgan, Michael Palin, Mackenzie Crook, Lenny Rush, Rob Brydon, & Guz Khan
'Cunk' star Diane Morgan, 'Monty Python's Michael Palin and 'Pirates of the Caribbean' actor Mackenzie Crook all feature in a new BBC comedy slate.
Petrie appeared to take a swipe at the BBC’s streaming rivals, who have been accused of pushing up prices in the UK by paying large sums to secure scripted talent and create visual effects for big-ticket productions. He’s torn between wanting to be part of the gang-sharing banter, keeping up with trends-and clinging to his role as responsible adult.The students, meanwhile, aren’t exactly living the dream: a 90-minute commute to campus, a strict bin rota, and a man in his 50s who insists on a group vote before ordering a takeaway. Small Prophets(w/t) is a six-part comedy created, written and directed by the BAFTA-winning Crook ( Detectorists, WorzelGummidge) and produced by Gill Isles ( Car Share, Alma’s Not Normal), from Treasure Trove Productions and Blue HouseProductions.
