Filming begins on new comedy feature

Filming has begun on ‘Confetti’, a new feature co-financed by BBC Films, Wasted Talent and Screen West Midlands.
Directed by Debbie Isitt, Confetti brings together an impressive ensemble of top UK comedy talent, including Martin Freeman (Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, Love Actually, The Office), Jessica Stevenson (Shaun of the Dead, Spaced, The Royle Family), Steve Mangan (Green Wing), Felicity Montagu (I'm Alan Partridge), award winning comedian Jimmy Carr in his first screen performance and Alison Steadman (Topsy Turvy, Life is Sweet). Confetti will film for six weeks in the UK.
Confetti is a sharp and affectionate comedy that charts the journey of three couples as they battle it out to win the coveted title of 'Most Original Wedding of the Year'.
Confetti is directed by Debbie Isitt (Nasty Neighbours) and produced by Wasted Talent's Ian Flooks (Love & Sex) and Ian Benson (The Weekend, The Misadventures of Margaret).
