Led by self-proclaimed garage legend MC Grindah and his second in command, DJ Beats, the Kurupt FM crew will be back to share more of the secrets from behind the mics at West London’s second most popular pirate station, and their never-ending quest for expansion and air-time glory.
The Kurupt FM crew first appeared on our screens in a Comedy Feed in 2012, and a full series followed on BBC iPlayer and BBC Three earlier this year.
On learning that his fame is set to continue, MC Grindah said: "Big up everyone for showing love. We have infiltrated the industry and now we're gonna destroy it! ...Well, not destroy it...make it better probably."
Crew fixer and self-styled entrepreneur Chabuddy G can’t wait to return to the limelight. "Ah thank God. I could do with a bit of airtime. These re-usable laser eye surgery kits won't sell themselves."
The five-part series is commissioned by Shane Allen, Controller of Comedy Commissioning and Sam Bickley, Channel Editor for BBC Three. Created by Roughcut Television, produced by Jon Petrie and executive produced by Ash Atalla for Roughcut Television and Chris Sussman for BBC Comedy Commissioning.
Executive producer Ash Atalla says: "When new talent is this good, and this cheap, the BBC insists on a second series. In truth, I think People Just Do Nothing is at the start of a successful journey. I fully expect to see the boys looking awkward in tuxedos making a misjudged acceptance speech someday soon."
Producer Jon Petrie added: "We're chuffed that BBC Three has confirmed series two. We were very proud of our first series and are pleased to get the chance to spend more time with the Kurupt FM crew and their families."
Commissioning Editor Chris Sussman said: “I’m delighted we’ve re-commissioned this series. I know for a fact it’s one of the Director General’s favourites. I once saw him in the lifts throwing his Ks up.”
