Wednesday 12th October 2022, 1:09pm


The prestigious Rose d'Or awards have announced the programmes which have been selected for consideration in the final stages of the international competition.

Somewhat confusingly, the narrative comedy programmes shortlisted have not all been placed in the Comedy Drama and Sitcom category. Instead, some appear in the general Comedy category, and others have been filed in the Drama category.

The following British TV comedies are shortlisted.
