School is in session for the second series of RTS Award-winning Daniel Lawrence Taylor’s comedy Boarders.
Chelsea Peretti (Brooklyn Nine-Nine), Tom Davis (Wonka), Denise Black (Queer as Folk), Jamali Maddix (Never Mind the Buzzcocks) and rapper Kojey Radical will all be making appearances. They’ll be joined by Charlie Cooper, in his first onscreen reunion with This Country co-star Daisy May Cooper.
You will have spotted the rise in Bristol voices entertaining us on TV – Stephen Merchant’s The Outlaws, Daisy May Cooper in Rain Dogs and, airing this month, Ruby Speaking, co-created by and starring Jayde Adams.
They share more than just the vernacular and location. All three series are warmly wrapped in empathy for their characters’ less-than-straightforward lifestyles and draw strongly on the colourful and complicated city itself.
