2018 Channel 4 Comedy Highlights

Category: News Release

It’s been a big year for comedy on Channel 4 – and it’s only March! Following the roaring success of Derry Girls (which was not only Northern Ireland’s biggest ever series but also the biggest comedy launch on Channel 4 since 2004) and Young Sheldon (E4’s best ever comedy launch), we’re excited to highlight four brand new series coming to Channel 4 this year. From the mishaps of two loveable builders to a hapless internet psychiatrist, from an inept north London letting agency to a crash landing (literally) on a tropical paradise, 2018 is set to continue with more brilliant, eclectic and hilarious comedy that explores modern British life with both new and established talent.

Fiona McDermott, Head of Channel 4 Comedy, says: “These five shows are just a slice of what we’ve got coming up this year, but we think they all really capture the tone of what comedy on Channel 4 is all about...original, authored, surprising and packed full of great laughs and all delivered by a real range of comic voices.”
