Baz Ashmawy and his mother Nancy with their International Emmy for ’50 Ways To Kill Your Mother’
“She [Nancy] put it very well, she said as soon as they mentioned that 50 Ways To Kill Your Mammy was the one that won, she said she didn’t remember anything, that it was like floating,” he said. “Then we went up onto the stage and said words and spoke to a crowd of very sophisticated television people from all around the world, and she nailed it, I’m just so proud of her to be honest.”

Fair play to him, another bit of irish comic talent that had to leave RTE to flourish.
Comic talent.Seriously, where?
beyond your kin son, beyond your kin
The ‘bit’ part of your assessment I agree with.I hope your not in a position of trust.
Fair balls. To be fair.
Fair play to Baz.
RTE completely screwed him so he went abroad and did his thing.
How did RTE screw him?
Is it not a Sky One show?
I’m confused… RTÉ or Sky…. should be Sky yeah?
Its a genuinely lovely program.
Delighted for them, love a good success story! Can’t wait to see the Mammy’s speech.
having the Irish Flag behind them is sooooo lame. Whats the point?
Its makes the Irish look like dummies pulling out the flag every opportunity …….
This ‘human’ is embarrassed. Please refrain from embarrassing this human as they have chosen to be somehow offended by someone holding a flag in celebration while on the other side of the world. Please do not use national flags in celebrations to ensure that human does not feel embarrassed ever ever again, Amen. Your co-operation is your choice.
And he looks furrdin anyway!
I knew you wouldn’t like him.
Fair dues, nice to see our own doing well. More of this please and may he inspire many to come after him.
