We've got some very exciting programmes to tell you about including some really great new comedies....

Pulling (Sharon Horgan as Donna)

Sharon Horgan as Donna in Pulling

LIFE STORY
Fans of Pulling actress will love this new prison based sitcom Life Story as it means Sharon's back on ³ÉÈË¿ìÊÖ Three. This time she's playing Helen Stephens, who's been wrongly imprisoned for murdering her boss. Her release looks increasingly unlikely as her family and friends don't seem keen on helping her get out. Her younger sister Laura has moved into her flat and taken her place in the pub quiz team. Her fiancé and alibi, Justin, is relieved as it means he won't have to face up to dumping her and the weirdo from work, Henry, is beginning to realise his weekly prison visits are the only guaranteed way to spend time with her. And that's before we even mention her more than useless lawyer.




WILFRED
Next up is something for all you fans of - yes, Frodo from Lord of The Rings is coming to ³ÉÈË¿ìÊÖ Three! In this new series Elijah plays Ryan, a struggling lawyer who strikes up a friendship with his neighbour's dog. The thing is, he's the only one who doesn't just see a pet pooch but a rude, surly Australian bloke in a cheap dog suit. Sounds interesting and it's sure to be funny as it was adapted from the original Australian series by David Zuckerman, who worked on Family Guy, American Dad and King of The Hill.

OTHER BRILLIANT COMEDIES COMING BACK...
You love 'em, we love 'em and so we're bringing them back. White Van Man starring Will Mellor and written by comedian Adrian Poynton has been recommissioned. And the brilliant Him & Her featuring Russell Tovey and Sarah Solemani has just finished filming and will be back later this year. And those rude, crude and hilarious puppets Mongrels will also be back for another series.
