Back in 2003, comedian Jocelyn Jee Esien was one of three stars in the sketch show 3 Non-Blondes, alongside Ninia Benjamin and Tameka Empson. All three had proven talents and impressive CVs, even then, including Trigger Happy TV, The Ali G Show, The Fast Show and The Lenny Henry Show, and 3 Non Blondes put them all on the map.

It only ran for one series though and a couple of years later, Esien was ready with her own show, Little Miss Jocelyn. Broadcast on BBC3 and written entirely herself, Little Miss Jocelyn broke a lot of ground and was a rare example of the Black British experience getting a chance to shine in a mainstream (white) space.

And, as this Twitter user pointed out, "Little Miss Jocelyn marked the first time in the history of television — in either the US or the UK — that a black woman had ever been given her own solo comedy sketch show."
