The director dishes on industry bias, ‘Taxi Driver’ and turning a perceived setback into opportunity.

The buzz surrounding Prevenge, the pregnancy revenge horror film written, directed and starring Alice Lowe, is well-deserved. Prevenge follows Ruth (Lowe), a grieving woman who embarks on a killing spree and believes that her unborn child is guiding her in this quest for revenge after the loss of her partner. Chock-full of biting British humor, this mother-to-be’s rampage is both relatable as well as a refreshing new twist on the sub-genre that has often been plagued by rape plot lines. But most of all, it’s wickedly funny, which comes as no surprise considering Lowe’s remarkable career in comedy across the pond.

Although Prevenge is her directorial debut, Lowe has worked alongside some of the biggest names in British comedy for the better part of fifteen years, including Rob Brydon’s Annually Retentive, Horrible Histories...

Rob Brydon has signed up to host a new comedy game show.

The currently untitled format for BBC One will film a pilot episode at Salford's The Studios complex at MediaCityUK, Manchester on Friday, August 23.

The "Saturday night comedy entertainment show" will involve two members of the public battling it out for "some of the most brilliant mediocre prizes on television".

Five celebrities from TV, film, music and sport will help out the contestants each episode.

The show is the latest in a line of Saturday night entertainment shows for BBC One, following on from Gabby Logan quiz I Love My Country and the upcoming series That Puppet Gameshow.

Rob Brydon also hosts the quiz show Would I Lie To You? and played a parody of himself in the spoof show Annually Retentive.

The comedians play companions in their new TV series, The Trip. But their real-life relationship runs far from smoothly

It is somewhere in the region of lunchtime at the Inn at Whitewell, and from the dining room carries the gentle roar of the feast: spoons brush soup plates, wine glasses kiss, and conversation gathers and swells. Outside, it is a sharp, bright day and here in the Trough of Bowland, the light skims across the bare branches and seems to settle among the hills of the Hodder Valley.

Back indoors, sitting beside the log fire, is the comedian Rob Brydon. He is sipping a glass of red wine and surveying the local newspaper, pausing, occasionally, to bask in the warmth.

Into his post-prandial idyll stalks Steve Coogan; taller, sharper, slightly harried, he sits down heavily and scowls. Brydon, impervious, lowers his newspaper. "I have ordered you a sticky toffee pudding,...
