Roughcut TV is to make a YouTube spin-off for its BBC Three series Things You Should Have Done, created by and starring Lucia Keskin.
What Have You Done? is part of the BBC’s strategy to commission content for YouTube – with short-form, personality-driven content that is designed to engage new audiences both on YouTube and BBC iPlayer.
Things You Should Have Done returned to screens earlier this year with its second series. Series two saw self-confessed stay-at-home daughter Chi (Lucia Keskin) once again grappling with life, death, and everything in between alongside her step cousin Lucas (Jamie Bisping) and unhinged and unprofessional grief counsellor Ruth (Bridget Christie).
What Have you Done? is a spin-off where hosts Chi and Lucas invite eight “bewildered celebrities” to sit on their pedalo on Ramsgate Boating Lake and discuss things they wish they’d done in their lives, alongside a few confessions about moments they perhaps wish they hadn’t.
Ash Atalla, CEO of Roughcut, added: “Making comedy is really hard. This was only a tiny bit easier because it was shorter”
Jon Petrie, BBC Director of Comedy, says: “We’re excited to continue exploring comedy on YouTube, from the vantage point of Chi’s pedalo. Big thanks to all the brilliant guests who gamely climbed aboard to chat with Chi and Lucas.”
Discussing their missed opportunities, failed dreams and hidden desires alongside the duo are Big Zuu, Kate Garraway, Sam Campbell, Tia Kofi, Konnie Huq, Tamzin Outhwaite, Lou Sanders and Josh Pugh.
The first two episodes are available to watch now on the official BBC YouTube channel and BBC iPlayer, with additional episodes released weekly.
Roughcut hits include Big Boys, Stath Lets Flats, and People Just Do Nothing.
