Mrs Brown's Boys Brendan O’Carroll Talks About The Live Halloween Special

Mrs Brown's Boys Mark Birthday With Live Halloween Special

Brendan O’Carroll talked about the history of Mrs Brown's Boys and the upcoming live Halloween special on The One Show.

Host Ronan Keating asked what the attraction was: "She's hard as nuts but can be a B.I.T.C.H. sometimes but she loves her kids...she cuddles me inside."

Brendan O’Carroll’s hit comedy will be back for another one-off live special this Halloween on BBC One to mark 10 years since the comedy began on tv.  There’s spooky going’s on in the Brown household where anything can, and probably will happen. 

"We're very nervous," says O'Connell about the live show. "not as nervous as the BBC..."

Apparently there's a surprise visitor and some haunting. "I can't give too much away because it's not written yet."

Mrs Brown’s Boys stars Brendan O’Carroll as misbehaving matriarch Agnes Brown who just can’t help interfering in the lives of her family and friends.   The show was first broadcast on BBC One in 2011 and has since become one of biggest comedies on tv.  In summer 2016 Mrs Brown’s Boys was broadcast live for the first time on BBC One.   

Mrs Brown’s Boys  was voted best sitcom for the 21st century in a Radio Times poll and has won numerous awards including a BAFTA for best scripted comedy (2012), the Writers Guild Great Britain Award (2014) and has won an incredible five National Television Awards for the most popular comedy TV programme (2013 – 2020).  

Brendan O’Carroll said: “It’s a huge thrill to do another “live” show for the BBC.  It’ll be so wonderful so see them nervous all over again.  We will be trying our best to stick to the script, but honestly a script is just a guideline Ha ha ha!! Bring it on! ” 

Charlotte Moore BBC’s Chief Content Officer said:  “I’m thrilled that we are marking the 10thAnniversary of the award winning Mrs Brown’s Boys coming to BBC One with this very special live broadcast. A huge thank you to Brendan and the team for keeping us all so brilliantly entertained for a decade. I can’t wait to see what mischief Agnes and family have in store for us this Halloween.”

O'Connell was asked if he would do Strictly: "Not if you put a hot nail through my earhole."

 

Mrs Brown’s Boys Live will be on BBC One at the end of October, excat date to be confirmed.
