HARD CELL COMEDY SERIES
FROM CATHERINE TATE
Here's a hilarious one: funny British comedian Catherine Tate will play a number of different characters in HARD CELL prison comedy show which streams on Netflix from April 12th! The series, which is both written and
created by Tate, will follow the inmates, staff and visitors of a fictional female prison, HMP Woldsley, with her playing multiple characters! Set over a six
week period, HARD CELL follows the inmates as they rehearse a musical directed by ex-EastEnders star Cheryl Fergison. Described as funny yet
surprisingly moving, the series sees Tate play Laura, HMP Woldsley’s governor who's "a bleeding heart liberal in kitten heels"; Ros, a popular and bouncy inmate; and Ange, an innocent and timid first-timer. She also plays
Big Viv, a terrifying inmate who is feared by everyone but develops a passion for theatre; Marco, a guard from Essex who's more committed to his appearance than his job; and Anne Marie, Ros' mother and a mean ex-con
who visits her when she's run out of money. Before Tate's gags in this British women's correctional facility, you will also be able to watch her in cinemas as
her NAN: THE MOVIE is out this weekend as a spin off of her show in which she plays a cranky and vulgar old nan with a nasty tongue and an even nastier mood. I shall ad the trailer here as soon as we get it.
