{"description":"Two hilarious writers for the page, stage and screen join us to discuss their careers and the importance of funny books.\nAbsolutely Fabulous star Helen Lederer follows her novel Losing It with memoir Not That I\u2019m Bitter, tracing her journey from child of a Jewish-Czech wartime refugee to, in the words of Dawn French, \u201cthe third funniest woman in the world\u201d. It\u2019s the reverse path for Have I Got News For You writer Sara Gibbs; in the wake of her acclaimed memoir Drama Queen comes her debut novel Eight Bright Lights, a Hanukkah-focused romcom. And as founders of the Comedy Women in Print Prize and The First Laugh Comedy Writing Competition respectively, we know they both take humour seriously! In conversation with comedian and writer Chris Neill.","height":1080,"html":"<div style=\"position:relative;padding-bottom:56.25%\"><iframe src=\"https://skiv.com/embed/2hLvt8p\" style=\"width:100%;height:100%;position:absolute;left:0;top:0\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"fullscreen\" allowfullscreen></iframe></div>","provider_name":"Skiv","provider_url":"https://skiv.com","thumbnail_height":198,"thumbnail_url":"https://cdn.skiv.com/u/MkG8VMM/4243490604371014ca44bef6613ba2bfa3784b0499c7e678d5f672dff029de43/thumbnails/thumbnail.jpg","thumbnail_width":352,"title":"Laugh Lines- Helen Lederer & Sara Gibbs Vimeo","type":"video","url":"https://skiv.com/v/2hLvt8p","version":"1.0","width":1920}
