UKTV keen to see funny side
UKTV has pledged to order risky and ambitious shows, and wants more original scripted comedy ideas after revealing plans for its first sitcom. Speaking at a Broadcast Breakfast Briefing earlier this week, controller Emma Tennant and director of commissioning Jane Rogerson said they were also looking for UKTV's version of The Trip, the Steve Coogan and Rob Brydon fronted comedy that aired on BBC2. Rogerson said UKTV is keen to develop further comedy ideas for both Gold and male-skewing network Dave.
