Three's Company

[an error occurred while processing this directive] [an error occurred while processing this directive] 2006

Digital channel's autumn comedy line-up.

BBC THREE's turn to unveil its autumn schedules, and here are the comedy programmes you'll be able to get your laughing gear around:

I'm With Stupid - Mark Benton, from Early Doors, plays a homeless man who strikes up an unlikely relationship with Paul, a wheelchair user played by Holby City's Paul Henshall, in this series that follows a successful pilot earlier this year.

Little Miss Jocelyn - One of the 3 Non-Blondes, Jocelyn Jee Esien, in her own sketch show, which also features hidden-camera stunts 'and the odd hapless celebrity' ¼ plus characters including the first black female US president; an upfront toilet attendant and a woman with worms.

Pulling - About an ordinary girl who dumps her unexciting fiancé in the search for a more thrilling life. It stars Sharon Horgan and Dennis Kelly, who created the show with Harry Thompson, the acclaimed producer who died in November at the age of 45.

Dogtown (working title) - About the quirky goings-on in the fictional coastal town of Horton-Le-Hole, where housewives secretly role-play as Olympic champions, a socially inept geography teacher dreams of being deputy head and a pyromaniac psychic dwarf reads palms at a bus stop.

Behind Closed Doors - A series of early-evening comedy pilots including Bash, about a group of twentysomething friends confronting maturity and responsibility; Lab Rats, set in a university laboratory, starring Chris Addison and produced by Armando Iannucci; and And Martin... a comedy about an aspiring novelist written by author and stand-up Mark Watson.

Tittybangbang - Returns for a second series.

Family Guy - More from Seth MacFarlane's animated series. Yay!
