The farewell series promises to wrap up the story in unforgettable 'Brassic style'.
Now that production has officially commenced on the seventh series of Sky's hit comedy Brassic, it has been confirmed that it will be the iconic show’s farewell, promising to wrap up the story in unforgettable 'Brassic style'.
This momentous return marks the last chapter for the unruly gang, who are promising to go out with a bang and with even more of the madness and mayhem that fans have cherished over the years. Fans of the franchise can expect one last whirlwind round of escapades, raucous adventure, and mischief from Vinnie, played by Joe Gilgun, and co.
The stories of this boisterous group will come to an end after an incredible seven series, since the show launched with huge success in 2019 and became a fan favourite. Returning cast members for the final series include Joe Gilgun as Vinnie, Ryan Sampson as Tommo, Michelle Keegan as Erin, Aaron Heffernan as Ashley, Parth Thakerar as JJ, Joanna Higson as Sugar and Steve Evets as Jim.
Speaking ahead of the seventh and final series, co-creator and writer Danny Brocklehurst, said "When Joe Gilgun and I sat down to create Brassic, we couldn't have imagined, in our wildest dreams, that we would do seven series and gather such a loyal and loving fan base. It's been a complete joy to create this eccentric world, but all good things must come to an end, and we want to stop while we are still riding high. Maybe they can finally give us that BAFTA!"
To which a Sky spokesperson added "Since Brassic arrived on our screens in 2019, it has become Sky's most successful comedy ever. Fans very quickly became attached to this dynamic group of friends, as they found unconventional ways to win at life in northern suburbia. We would like to thank Joe Gilgun, Danny Brocklehurst and the whole cast and crew – past and present – for bringing us all a truly iconic series, which we’ve loved for its special mix of hilarity and heart."
Produced by Calamity Films, the hit comedy will return later this year, promising to wrap up the iconic story in unforgettable ‘Brassic style’. Created by Danny Brocklehurst and Joe Gilgun, written by Danny Brocklehurst and produced by Jim Poyser, Brassic is executive produced by David Livingstone, Danny Brocklehurst, Joe Gilgun, Bekki Wray-Rogers and Alex Moody for Sky.
Calamity Films Founder, David Livingstone, spoke about the success of Brassic and said "Somehow, some crazy stories and a bucketful of truth, combined with an astoundingly talented cast, have created the most loyal fanbase you could ever hope for. From Joe Gilgun’s unconventional imagination to Danny Brocklehurst’s brilliant writing, it's all been a blast. This farewell series is for the fans."
