Brenda Blethyn
ITV has had a pretty tortuous relationship with mainstream sitcoms over the years. Look at any All Time Greats chart and their only one that regularly gets into the upper echelons is Rising Damp. In recent years the channel seems to have shuttled between totally giving up on sitcoms and really trying hard. A few years ago it looked like they might have had a chance of a big hit with Jack Dee in Bad Move. It did OK but couldn't quite manage Leonard Rossiter levels of traction.
The transmission date has been confirmed for Kate And Koji, the new ITV1 sitcom starring Brenda Blethyn and Jimmy Akingbola.
It will air at 8pm on Wednesdays, startong on March 18.
Brenda Blethyn will take on the title role of Kate and film actor Jimmy Akingbola taking on the role of Koji.
Kate & Koji centres around a working-class woman who runs an old-fashioned café in a seaside town and who develops a strong, if sometimes volatile, friendship with an asylum-seeking African doctor.
