Irish Star Wins Comedy Gong
Updated : Dec 8, 2008
Irish writer and actress Sharon Horgan was named Best Comedy Entertainment Actress for her BBC3 show 'Pulling' at the British Comedy Awards.
Sharon, a 36-year-old mother of two originally from Co. Meath and now living in London, said she was shocked when her name was called out, beating out competition from Ugly Betty star Ashley Jensen and Olivia Coleman from the Peep Show .
She is currently filming a new series for Channel 4 called Free Agents. She has also written and appeared in shows such as The Pilot Show, The Friday Night Project, The Catherine Tate Show and Monkey Dust.
Very Happy Pig says well done Sharon, but why the hell didn't I get a comedy award, I'm very funny too!
