BBC Radio Wales has commissioned a second series of Relocation, written by and starring Welsh stand-up Robin Morgan, to be broadcast next year.
The first series featured a metropolitan couple (Helen Monks and Clint Edwards) being relocated to the Welsh Valleys after being put into witness protection. They have to deal with the threat of being discovered, not helped by the incompetent local police (Steve Speirs and Robin Morgan).
The programme also starred Beth Granville and Vern Griffiths, with more cast being added for the second series. Robin Morgan will again direct the series.
Four new episodes will be recorded later this year, before being broadcast on the network in Spring 2020. It will again be produced by Zipline Creative.
Robin said: “I’m so happy we’re getting the band back together. We had such fun making the first series, and I truly believe we made friends for life. The kind of friends who only see each other once a year when we’re recording this programme which we’re contractually obliged to take part in. I can’t wait! Time to fire up the WhatsApp group.”
Morgan’s writing credits include topical comedies The Mash Report and The News Quiz. He was awarded the BBC Radio Comedy Contract Writer’s Bursary in 2016.
Robin Morgan is at the Edinburgh Fringe from August 1 - 25. Details here.
