  • A Very Brassic Christmas<br>Nobody does Christmas like the Brassic gang. The plan is to kick back, relax and enjoy life to the max. But then comes the inevitable. A call from Dr Chris saying his aunt is in crisis and needs looking after and a robbery at Tyler’s school ruining his nativity. Vinnie, Erin Tommo, Cardi, Carol Ashely and JJ must now bring on their A Game and help save Christmas the Brassic way. Bring on a heist at a winter wonderland, a fight with a man called Dick Dolphin, babysitting Chris’s Aunt and the best Nativity ever staged.

  • Never Mind The Buzzcocks is a comedy entertainment show hosted by comedian Greg Davies, with team captains Noel Fielding and Daisy May -Cooper. The return of the irreverent music quiz with also see the return of its beloved rounds – intros, the line-up and next lines but with a few new bonus rounds and a host of trivia questions and clips thrown in. The tone remains anarchic and subversive in style, shining a light on the music industry and calling it to account. The home, the originator of panel shows where comedy and music merge in wonderful dis-harmony.
