With Ben Stiller producing

Olivia Lee is to make her own US pilot with Ben Stiller’s production company.

Digital channel TruTV has ordered a half-hour pilot featuring sketches and hidden camera stunts.

As well as starring, Lee will write the new show with Dean Craig, whose credits include the acclaimed 2007 film  Death At A Funeral.

She has previously shot hidden camera segments for the Tonight Show with Jay Leno in the States. And in the UK, she was one of the pranksters on Channel 4’s Balls Of Steel and had her own show, Dirty, Sexy, Funny, on Comedy Central.

The Olivia Lee Show is being co-produced with Stiller through his company Red Hour,  along with Jackie Cohn and former South Park producer Debbie Liebling.
