  • Comedy Award for Best Show with Her Show a BIC for HER
    BRIDGET CHRISTIE Bridget Christie is a female person. She won a scholarship to study acting at The Academy of Live and Recorded Arts in Wandsworth, so she did that for 3 years. It didn’t really get her anywhere so she gave up on trying to get casting directors to like her and in 2004 turned her face to stand-up. She was a finalist in Funny Women 2004, was nominated for the Leicester Mercury Comedian of the Year 2005, won the inaugural Funny Women Best Show Fringe Award 2007 for her show The Court of King Charles II and was nominated for the Chortle Best Breakthrough Act 2009. In 2013 she won the Foster’s Edinburgh Comedy Award for Best Show with her show A BIC FOR HER. The show also won the 2014 South Bank Sky Arts Award for Best Comedy, the 2014 Chortle Award for Best Show and a 2014 Hospital 100 Club Award for Performance and Theatre. A BIC FOR HER was a total sell out in Edinburgh and became the top selling comedy show at Soho Theatre ever, selling out every night of its 54 night run. Her debut BBC Radio 4 series, BRIDGET CHRISTIE MINDS THE GAP was broadcast in April 2013. It won Best Radio at the 2014 Chortle Awards and a prestigious 2014 Rose D’Or International Broadcasting Award. It was also nominated for a Radio Academy Award 2014, but she lost out and was told by the winner on the night that she shouldn’t have won anyway, as it was only her first series.
