Comedy
Dave Cohen and James Cary are joined by Gina Yashere, who left the UK for the Californian sun after feeling frustrated by the limited opportunities she was getting in Britain as a black woman. Gina talks openly about the differences between the US and UK stand-up circuits, her experience of trying to make a name for herself from scratch, and of course that old chestnut - being a woman on Mock The Week. Also up for discussion is the return of The Comic Strip, brand new sitcom Threesome, panel shows and their non-existence Stateside, and Dave talks about his experience at a recent comedy conference in Manchester, where all the broadcasters - but particularly Sky - renewed commitments to produce more television comedy. One question remains unanswered: will their promises come to fruition?
