               Katherine Ryan's boyfriend saves


               Netflix scripts during burglary

               Comedian Katherine Ryan has described how her boyfriend fought off an intruder at her home to
               save a laptop containing the scripts to her new show.


               In an Instagram Story, the Canadian showed police at her London home and wrote: "Cool to be robbed
               tonight by a masked man in our home."

               The 36-year-old appealed for help in tracing a ring that was stolen.

               Ryan is known for stand-up and panel shows but has written a Netflix sitcom, The Duchess, about a single
               mother.


               She previously told Radio Times that writing the series "was a challenge because I'm not a screenwriter
               who's experienced, I don't know the rules".

               And in an Instagram clip posted at the weekend, she pointed out blood on the laptop and told followers:
               "This is why I love Bobby K [Kootstra]. He got in a fight and wrestled back my Netflix series, all my
               scripts."
