Another month, another range of shorts headed to Channel 4’s All 4. Short films are key to the broadcaster’s online success: they generated 3 million views last year, helping to drive overall visits to All 4 by 23 per cent. The newest to arrive are a typically eclectic bunch, including several Blaps, All 4’s online showcase to help develop new programme ideas and discover tomorrow’s comedy stars today.
Here’s what coming soon in September 2015:
Young & Minted: I Won the Lottery (Monday 14th September)
Comedian Olivia Lee explores the world of young lottery winners. What do teenage terrors spending their millions on?
