News: New Matt Berry Does...

The new Matt Berry Does... will be released by BBC iPlayer tonight at 9pm. It will be entitled Matt Berry Does...Ghosts to coinicide with the run-up to Halloween.

This is the latest short comedy in the series, co-written by Bob Mortimer, in which Berry takes a typically idiosyncratic look at modern culture. He has previously dissected summer holidays, Father's Day and the Boat Race. There will be one final Matt Berry Does... after this, which is believed to be Matt Berry Does...Christmas.
