Kayvan Novak and Ashley Walters are among the stars featuring in a new series of pilot Comedy Feeds for BBC Three in July.
The nine new Comedy Feeds will be available on iPlayer from 20 July, and are now in their third year after two successful runs, which saw BBC Three commissioning full series of People Just Do Nothing, Nick Helm’s Heavy Entertainment and Impractical Jokers.
Shane Allen, Controller of BBC Comedy Commissioning, says: “This exciting range of shows and new talents cement BBC Three’s place as the key place for emerging comedy talent on and off screen. With so many spin-off series springing from these, the Comedy Feeds show serious commitment to finding the next best writers, directors and faces of British comedy.”
