'Mrs Brown’s Boys' Wins Best Comedy at TV Choice Awards
10 Sep 2013 : By Kevin Cronin
'Mrs Brown's Boys' continues on its path to world domination.
Brendan O’Carroll’s ‘Mrs Brown’s Boys’ - which is currently filming its big screen spin-off in Dublin - won Best Comedy at the TV Choice awards for the second year in a row in London's Dorchester hotel last night.

The IFTA and Bafta winning comedy series saw off competition from the likes of ‘Bad Education’, ‘Miranda’ and ‘Not Going Out’ to win the prize, as voted for by members of the public.

Principal photography on 'Mrs Brown's Boys – D'Movie' began on Dublin’s Moore Street on 1st September, described by O’Carroll as the first in a ‘four-part trilogy’.

The plot follows Agnes Brown’s attempts to thwart an Eastern European developer who wants to knock down her stall and build a set of apartments, while she struggles with an unpaid tax bill of €4 million.

Such is the worldwide appeal of Mrs Brown's humour that the show recently started showing in Canada, is an established hit in Australia and is now the most popular comedy on Romanian TV.

The show won the IFTA for Best Entertainment Programme last year, a Bafta for Best Situation comedy and a Bafta Scotland award for Best Comedy Entertainment Programme.

The film is being directed by Ben Kellett and shot by Director of Photography Martin Hawkins.

'Mrs Brown's Boys D’Movie’ is a Bocflix, RTÉ, Universal and BBC Films co-production and will be released in June 2014.
