- Creativity in the British Television Comedy Industry is the first book-length study of the creative labour of British TV comedy. Conducting and analysing three years of extensive original interviews with key players within the UK comedy industry (including writers, producers, and commissioners), the book explores how British television comedy is made, and how the industry understands and treats creativity, success, and failure. Arising out of an AHRC-funded research project, this is an Interdisciplinary study of contemporary understandings of creative labour, production discourses, and nationhood.
