composer Isobel Waller-Bridge, noting that her music had "covered and elevated" the "slightly mediocre bits" of the show with her score. Thewriter went on to share that Isobel had left a little gift of sorts for the series' Latin-speaking viewers. "She put in a little secret in for anyone who can speak Latin, but all the words that the thing is is singing in Latin during the songs are completely filthy," Wallger-Bridge said, smiling. "So thank you for keeping the DNA of the show right in even to the classiest music possible."
After thanking producers, the BBC and Amazon, Waller-Bridge gave her final acceptance speech shout-out to an unexpected inspiration:star Jennifer Lopez. While on stage, the multiple award-winner stated that singer-actress Lopez had inspired a certain "hot" and popular character in the comedy. "This is a bit of a random shout-out, but you have no idea how much you can accidentally inspire people just by doing your work," Waller-Bridge told the Critics' Choice audience. "Somebody who inspires this show in a way they will never know and that is J.Lo. I decided that the priest's favorite song was 'Jenny From the Block' and it opens the entire character up for me, so I don't know where she is, but that's really genuine, so thank you.
