Bernadette Davis is a television screen-writer, who co-wrote the first 2 series of the BBC's sitcom Game On with Andrew Davies.[1][2] She wrote the third series on her own. She was nominated for a BAFTA award for Game On in 1997. Game On was said to be: "a part of a zeitgeist that came to define a generation" and was a "sitcom that was so of its time, that it took its name from a catchphrase of the decade."[3] She studied English and Drama at Goldsmiths College, University of London. ProductionIn 1996, Davis co-wrote the mini-TV series Wilderness with Andrew Davies, from the novel by Dennis Danvers.[4] She also wrote an episode of Soldier Soldier in 1997, titled "Line of Departure". She wrote a 6-episode sitcom series called The Wilsons in 2000, which featured David Bradley and Julian Rhind-Tutt, in one of his earliest roles.[5][6] In 2012, she wrote the BBC Three sitcom series Some Girls.[7] Series 1 aired in November 2012,[8][9][10] and series 2 started airing in September 2013.[11] Some Girls has been described as: "...a comedy about the kind of girls more usually seen in worrying documentaries about inner city teens. The series centres around a group of 16/17 year old pupils at [a] Comprehensive School in London."[12] Davis herself said about the show: "As far as I know, there aren't any other comedies about girls of this age. Inbetweeners has shown what a rich area for comedy this age group is - but girls are very different and I thought they should have their own show."[13]ReceptionThe Daily Mirror made the first episode of Some Girls "Tuesday's must-see TV" and described the show as "Energetic, irreverent and real".[14] The Stage online said: "the relationship between the quartet of friends is well observed and firmly rooted in recognisable, realistic emotions".[15] Comedian Jimmy Mulville, Managing Director of Hat Trick Productions, says: “This second series of Some Girls confirms Bernadette Davis as one of the funniest writers working today. We're lucky to have her.”[11] References1. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.comedy.co.uk/guide/tv/game_on/|title=Game On|work=comedy.co.uk|accessdate=13 July 2015}} 2. ^Cf 'Andrew Davis (Television)' critical appraisal book, by Sarah Cardwell, Manchester University Press, {{ISBN|978-0719064920}}, pp198-199 for references to his work with Bernadette Davis. 3. ^Interview with Matthew Cottle, , Yorkshire Post 4. ^Wilderness review, ,Artists Direct 5. ^The'>Wilsons on Channel 4 website 6. ^The'>Wilsons on British Comedy website 7. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.comedy.co.uk/guide/tv/some_girls/|title=Some Girls|work=comedy.co.uk|accessdate=13 July 2015}} 8. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.bbc.co.uk/blogs/bbcthree/2011/11/feed-my-funny-zai.shtml|title=BBC - BBC Three - Blog: BBC Three feeding more funny|work=bbc.co.uk|accessdate=13 July 2015}} 9. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.radiotimes.com/news/2011-11-30/fresh-meats-jack-whitehall-gets-his-own-bbc3-sitcom|title=Fresh Meat’s Jack Whitehall gets his own BBC3 sitcom|work=RadioTimes|accessdate=13 July 2015}} 10. ^Net News Publisher article on Some Girls {{webarchive |url=https://web.archive.org/web/20131004213606/http://www.netnewspublisher.com/filming-begins-in-south-london-on-some-girls-a-new-comedy-series-for-bbc-three/ |date=October 4, 2013 }} 11. ^1 {{cite web|url=http://www.bbc.co.uk/mediacentre/latestnews/2013/some-girls2.html|title=BBC - Some Girls return to BBC Three for brand new series - Media Centre|work=bbc.co.uk|accessdate=13 July 2015}} 12. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.atvtoday.co.uk/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=3038:zai-bennett-announces-new-comedy-commissions&catid=1:tv-media&Itemid=3|title=ATV Today|work=ATV Today|accessdate=13 July 2015}} 13. ^Interview with Bernadette Davis about Some Girls on the BBC website 14. ^{{cite web|url=https://www.mirror.co.uk/night-copy/strictly-come-dancing-star-colin-1418785|title=Strictly Come Dancing star Colin Salmon stars in BBC3's energetic, irreverent and real Some Girls - Jane Simon - Mirror Online|author=Jane Simon|work=mirror|accessdate=13 July 2015}} 15. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.thestage.co.uk/features/tv-radio/2012/11/tv-review-nick-nickleby-some-girls-the-late-great-eric-sykes/|title=TV review: Nick Nickleby; Some Girls; The Late Great Eric Sykes - TV & radio - The Stage|author=Harry Venning|work=The Stage|accessdate=13 July 2015}} External links
