Free tickets are available for two new shows featuring Lucy Montgomery, Waen Shepherd and Sharon Horgan.

Montgomery, who will be familiar to TVO readers for her appearances in AD/BC, The Mighty Boosh, Tittybangbang, The IT Crowd and of course, as the voice of Destiny in Mongrels, will be hosting a new series of her own Radio 4 sketch show, Lucy Montgomery’s Variety Pack, which will feature Shepherd, alongside Philip Pope, Sally Grace and Natalie Walter.

The show will be recorded in two instalments at BBC Radio Theatre on July 15th and 20th at 7:15pm.  Tickets can be applied for now via the BBC Shows website.

Meanwhile, Sharon Horgan, whom TVO readers should be familiar with via her work on Angelo’s, Lifespam, Free Agents, Anually Retentive and a couple of Jackal Films, will be the host of new comedy chat show pilot Guilty Party – which will be all about awkward social situations and doing the wrong thing.

Tickets for the show, which films on 19th July at BBC Television Centre  can be requested at Hat Trick Productions website.

The Velvet Onion will aim to bring you further details about the broadcast of both shows as soon as possible.
