New comedy execs and producers at Sky and the BBC

The BBC’s comedy department has appointed I May Destroy You producer Tanya Qureshi as a commissioning editor.
She will replace Alex Moody, who is leaving the BBC to join Sky in the same role this summer. Her commissions for the Corporation included Mackenzie Crook’s Worzel Gummidge, King Gary, Motherland, and Frankie Boyle’s New World Order.
Meanwhile, Sky has also appointed BBC producer Adnan Ahmed and Katie Churchill, from independent production company Tiger Aspect, to work on the programme-making side. Their remit includes identifying writing and performing talent and working to develop scripted comedies.
