The BBC has announced a brand-new YouTube spin-off series of BAFTA and RTS award-winning sitcom, Things You Should Have Done. Created by and starring Lucia Keskin and produced by Roughcut Television (People Just Do Nothing, Stath Lets Flats).
Things You Should Have Done returned to screens earlier this year with its second series, following a wave of award wins and nominations for its debut.
Series two saw self-confessed “stay-at-home daughter” Chi (Lucia Keskin) once again grappling with life, death, and everything in between alongside her step cousin Lucas (Jamie Bisping) and unhinged and wildly unprofessional grief counsellor Ruth (Bridget Christie).
WHAT HAVE YOU DONE? is a hilarious spin-off of the BBC Three comedy, where dysfunctional but lovable hosts Chi and Lucas invite eight bewildered celebrities to sit on their pedalo on Ramsgate Boating Lake and discuss things they wish they'd done in their lives, alongside a few confessions about moments they perhaps wish they hadn’t.
Ash Atalla, CEO of Roughcut, added: “Making comedy is really hard. This was only a tiny bit easier because it was shorter”
Jon Petrie, BBC Director of Comedy, says: “We’re excited to continue exploring comedy on YouTube, from the vantage point of Chi’s pedalo. Big thanks to all the brilliant guests who gamely climbed aboard to chat with Chi and Lucas.”
Discussing their missed opportunities, failed dreams and hidden desires alongside the duo are Big Zuu, Kate Garraway, Sam Campbell, Tia Kofi, Konnie Huq, Tamzin Outhwaite, Lou Sanders and Josh Pugh. The first two episodes are available to watch now on the official BBC YouTube channel and BBC iPlayer, with additional episodes released weekly.
WHAT HAVE YOU DONE? is part of the BBC's strategy to commission content for YouTube - with short-form, personality-driven content that is designed to engage new audiences both on YouTube and BBC iPlayer.
Roughcut’s proven success in nurturing original voices is evident in how it has developed breakout talent whose work seamlessly transcends digital and television, with additional standout successes such as Big Boys, Stath Lets Flats, and People Just Do Nothing.
