New sitcom 'Damned', written by Morwenna Banks, starts tonight!

Tuesday 27th September 2016

Tonight on Channel 4 sees the start of a brand new sitcom Damned, which is (co) written by our fabulous Morwenna Banks.

Based on real life social worker's experience, Morwenna, who has co-written Damned with Jo Brand, addresses the need for comedy balance within a profession that can be extremely difficult to work in.

“It was difficult to mix it, but that’s the piece we wanted to write,” says Banks. “We knew there’d be moments when it would be a bit shocking, as well as moments when it would be funny.”. “We spoke to social workers and asked: ‘So, would this happen or would that happen?’ and they would come up with five things that were way more extreme,”.

Make sure you tune in tonight from 10pm on Channel 4!
