Feel Good, Home and Ghosts have all been nominated in the Best Comedy category in the South Bank Sky Arts Awards 2021.
A second season of Feel Good, starring Mae Martin and Charlotte Ritchie, has just dropped on Netflix. Ghosts, with a large cast that also includes Charlotte Ritchie, has been a big hit on the BBC. Home, however, the comedy about an asylum seeker in the UK written by Rufus Jones, who also co-stars, has not been recommissioned by Channel 4 despite two very well-received series.
Rufus Jones tweeted: “One of my 5 year olds kept me up till dawn this morning, so this lovely news has taken on a slightly psychedelic quality. And how nice to be nominated alongside some old friends. Thank you Sky Arts. I shall now fall asleep at this bus stop. #HumbleBragg.”
Ghosts’ Jim Howick tweeted: “What a wonderful thing. In fierce company with @rufusjones1 and @TheMaeMartin Congrats to you!”
Mae Martin tweeted: “Very chuffed! What dreamy nominees.”
The nominees in other categories include: Dua Lipa, J Hus, Maggie O’farrell, Kiln Theatre’s Pass Over, Paul Mendez’s Rainbow…
