Olivia Colman has been awarded a CBE in the Queen's Birthday Honours List and Griff Rhys Jones has been given an OBE.
Colman, who plays the Queen in the next series of The Crown on Netflix, said she was "totally thrilled, delighted and humbled”.
Elvis Costello, Bear Grylls and Cush Jumbo were also among those who received OBEs. Actor Simon Russell Beale becomes a knight.
The wonderfully weird and weirdly wonderful Flowers returns to C4 on Monday, June 11 at 10pm and runs all week. Here is an interview with one of the stars, Olivia Colman.
One of Channel 4's oddest comedies in recent years is to get a second series.
Writer/performer Will Sharpe's Flowers will return for six more episodes in association with US comedy streaming channel Seeso.
The acclaimed show, which aired over five consecutive nights, introduced the world to the eccentric Flowers family – Maurice, Deborah and the twins – and was praised for its startling originality and seamless shifts from the profane to the profound in an ostensibly traditional family sitcom setting.
I wish I could come up with a way of describing dark comedy without calling it “dark”. It has become a catch-all adjective to describe everything from Frankie Boyle to Julia Davis. And now it is being tossed around willy nilly to describe C4's Flowers.
More information and images have been released to promote the eagerly anticipated Channel 4 comedy Flowers.
The six-part series, due for broadcast this Spring, will star Olivia Colman (Broadchurch, The Lobster, Peep Show, Hot Fuzz) and Julian Barratt (The Mighty Boosh, Nathan Barley) and is written and directed by BAFTA-nominated Will Sharpe (Black Pond).
The British Academy of Film and Television Arts (BAFTA) has today announced the nominations for this year’s awards. The biggest comedy nominee is The IT Crowd. Co-stars Richard Ayoade and Chris O’Dowd compete with The Wrong Mans’ Mathew Baynton and James Corden in the Male Performance in a Comedy Programme category.
The second feature in our series on this year's Bafta nominees is a location report on the making of Twenty Twelve featuring interviews with co-stars Hugh Bonneville and Jessica Hynes first published in The Times last March.
