Podcasts about Little Britain

Send us a textEvery TV Sitcom yo've ever loved has been touched by this man's genius! What does it take to shepherding some of the most beloved British comedy shows from idea to cultural phenomenon? Jon Plowman OBE—the executive producer behind The Office, Absolutely Fabulous, Vicar of Dibley, Inside No. 9, and countless other comedy classics—offers a rare glimpse into the creative chaos that birthed these iconic programs.From surviving a motorcycle accident that landed him in the hospital (with a parade of celebrities visiting his bedside) to the surreal experience of being interviewed for Oxford University by candlelight during a power outage, Plowman's journey through British television is as unexpected as it is enlightening. His revelation about arriving at a meeting with French and Saunders three weeks before filming to find their "script" consisted of merely four Post-it notes on a wall surrounded by celebrity magazines speaks volumes about the creative genius he helped nurture throughout his career.The most valuable lesson from Plowman's storied career might be his philosophy of "never shouting cut"—allowing the moments between scripted lines and official filming to capture spontaneous comedy gold. This approach led to some of the most memorable moments in shows like Absolutely Fabulous, where improvisation flourished in the spaces between what was written and what naturally emerged on set.Beyond the humorous anecdotes—including the delightfully absurd story of settling a dispute between David Walliams and Matt Lucas about the appropriate size of a certain stain on a jacket lapel during a Little Britain sketch—lies Plowman's profound insight into recognizing and cultivating comedy genius. Whether championing Ricky Gervais and Stephen Merchant's revolutionary mockumentary format for The Office or supporting Reece Shearsmith and Steve Pemberton's anthology vision for Inside No. 9 against network pressures, Plowman's instinct for spotting innovation has shaped decades of entertainment.Ready to discover how the most iconic British comedy shows made it from concept to screen?

The government has this morning announced that the community mental health team facility is to be relocated from Coaling Island to Sir Joshua Hassan House, on Secretary's Lane. The announcement follows previous plans to move the CMHT to the old Gibraltar Chronicle Printworks. The facility aims to operate as a single point of access which will streamline communications between mental health professionals, external services and other stakeholders. Minister for Health Gemma Arias Vasquez explained the plans in greater detail. Recently declassified documents show that, following the 1988 IRA shootings, the British Government discussed withholding sensitive intelligence from the deceased's family lawyers when the matter came before the European Commission for Human Rights in 1994. Officials expressed concern about the disclosure of a document which referenced intelligence gathering operations in Spain. Our reporter Jonathan Sacramento has read the declassified documents.It's Neurodiversity Celebration Week! Yesterday we discussed Dyslexia with Martin Posso, who's 10 year old son Jack is dyslexic.

Regnen silede, da Storbritanniens premierminister Rishi Sunak forleden udskrev valg foran Downing Street 10. At det sker netop nu er kommet bag på de fleste, for de konservative er bagud med mere end 20% til Labour. Der er med andre ord ingen chancer for at Sunak kan vinde. Han er blot den seneste i en række af konservative premierministre, som alle har forsøgt at rette Storbritanniens økonomi op efter Brexit, hvilket har vist sig at være tæt på umuligt. Sammen med lektor emeritus ved CBS Ole Helmersen, ser Udsyn i dag på, hvad det er, der er sket i Storbritannien, der lader til at sidde fast i en ubrydelig stime af kriser.
