Brian Pern - bbc2 - New Comedy 1/3

Brian Pern is an ageing rock star and former frontman of the progressive rock group Thotch. He and his bandmates reunite to discuss the making of their first ever jukebox musical, Stowe Boys. This is not easy as they hate each other.

Not only that, on the opening night of the musical, Brian is unexpectedly arrested by officers from Operation Bad Apples for a crime he doesn't know he has committed. Will he make the second half?

was it any good???

no..rather predictable

Agree sofiakenny, predicatably clichéd dont know wtf they are thinking of.

Simon Day doing a weird accent was grating

Was it like Spinal Tap without the humour?

was it one louder ?

completely sh!te from little bit i saw before turning over

Hoping this was something worth watching.But 10 mins was long enough.

Twas sh1t.
