As part of the editing team,  Abraham Teweldebrhan, worked his socks off to get this show ready in a very tight turnaround! The programme sees Gordon and Gino going head to head to lay on a spectacular festive banquet. The feast is for deserving members of the public and emergency services who have risked their lives in horrendous circumstances this year such as terror attacks and the tragedy of Grenfell Tower. The banquet is being held at Merchant Taylor’s Hall, near to Borough Market and Westminster Bridge – both locations for terror attacks in 2017.

First Dates Maître d’ Fred Sirieix and Comedian Stephen Merchant will also be on hand to get the results from the diners on the night and see whether Gordon or Gino’s menu and dishes have triumphed.

Gordon, Gino and Fred’s Great Christmas Roast airs Thursday 21st December at 9pm on ITV.

The League of Gentlemen is returning to BBC2 for three new episodes!

The pitch-black comedy finished on BBC2 in 2002 and was followed by a film in 2005, The League of Gentlemen’s Apocalypse. Now it’s back for three new episodes.  All four of The League of Gentlemen’s original creators – Mark Gatiss, Steve Pemberton, Jeremy Dyson, and Reece Shearsmith – will reunite for the new specials airing on 18^th, 19^th and 20^th Dec.

Jenny Sheridan edited the three new episodes with the lovely Desiree Ivegbuna as her edit support and rough assembly editor. Jenny  said “The most challenging thing was actually when it was all over. Being a part of something that I’d grown up watching, loving and quoting was just incredible. I had to pinch myself on a daily basis. Then when we picture locked the final episode it felt like a historic moment, the end of an era really”

Congratulations Desiree and Jenny, we can’t wait to watch

Director: John Dower

The documentary will be released on the 24^th November on Apple Music to coincide with the release of the Who Built The Moon album. It includes footage from an intimate gig in York Hall, London to promote the album.

Franco Bogino edited the film and said “It was great fun to work on because Noel is a right joker, so the material was very funny. There was limited access so we had to make the little we had go far. The best thing about it was that I got on the guest list for the concert featured in the doc, and I got to meet Noel. It was very brief, the only thing he said to me was ‘Don’t f**k it up you c***’!”
