Get ready for an uproarious weekend as Sky brings forth an entire weekend dedicated to its uproarious original comedy, Brassic! Set to kick off this bank holiday, fans are in for a treat with the opportunity to catch up on all four series of Brassic before the eagerly anticipated fifth season debuts in September. But that’s not all – during the Brassic Weekender, fans will also get an exclusive sneak peek at Brassic Season 5, complete with the launch of its thrilling trailer and a behind-the-scenes short that promises to be a true delight.
In a recent development, The National Television Awards have unveiled their shortlist of nominations, and Brassic has earned a prestigious nomination in the Comedy category. The excitement mounts as fans now have the chance to cast their votes for their favourite shows at nationaltvawards.com/vote. Mark your calendars for the grand ceremony scheduled to take place in London on 5 September, where the Brassic cast will be in attendance, eagerly awaiting the outcome. This nomination comes on the heels of Brassic’s triumphant win at this year’s Royal Television Society Programme Awards, where the series secured the inaugural comedy-drama award.
As part of the Brassic Weekender, alongside the electrifying series 5 trailer, an exclusive new behind-the-scenes shot from Sky Zero will be available on demand. This special sneak peek takes viewers behind the curtain, introducing beloved characters such as the cantankerous Farmer Jim (Steve Evets), core gang members Cardi (Tom Hanson) and Erin (Michelle Keegan), as well as Jim’s rival and neighbor Shirley Paslowski (Archie Kelly). In this behind-the-scenes snippet, Jim finds himself thrown off-kilter by the presence of Sky Zero sustainability consultants, who’ve taken to the set to ensure that Brassic stands as one of the most environmentally conscious productions of our time.
Drawing inspiration from the ‘true-life’ escapades of three-time BAFTA-nominated lead actor and co-creator Joe Gilgun, Brassic has captivated audiences with its distinctive fusion of uproarious comedy and heartfelt authenticity. Co-created by writer Danny Brocklehurst, the show’s ensemble cast includes renowned names like Michelle Keegan, Dominic West, Tom Hanson, Aaron Heffernan, Ryan Sampson, Parth Thakerar, Bronagh Gallagher, Joanna Higson, and Steve Evets.
