Will Mellor and Ralf Little will pull back the curtain on their “bickering bromance” in a new series.
Will and Ralf Should Know Better will air on U&Dave and stream on U later this year – following the relaunch of the UKTV brands.
The 4×60 minute shows will find out how they can do life better as two middle aged men in their forties, with each episode themed around a number of encounters and challenges to test their attitudes.
“I’ve wanted to do a series like this for years! Going on a journey with Ralf to open our minds and push our limits … what could possibly go wrong!?” said Mellor.
“We’re both in our 40s now and probably a bit set in our ways, so now is the perfect time to see how we could be doing life better. Hopefully, we’ll come out of it better equipped for the modern world and, ideally, still in one piece.”
Will and Ralf Should Know Better is produced by Edinburgh TV Festival’s Small Indie of The Year, Afro-Mic Productions, and supported by Northern Ireland Screen. The executive producers are Alison Foster and Emma-Rosa Dias.
“I am thrilled to be working with Will again as it’s always so much fun,” added Little.
“We’ve just finished our podcast tour and I thought I might get a bit of a break from him! This time we get to explore how we should be living in the modern world while educating ourselves and having a laugh at the same time. I can’t wait to get going.
It’s been commissioned for UKTV by Jason Dawson, Commissioning Executive and ordered by Cherie Hall, Dave Channel Director and Hilary Rosen, Director of Commissioning.
“We are very excited to be producing this new series for U&Dave. We can’t wait to get on the road with Will and Ralf, two of Britain’s best loved and funniest friends, as they challenge themselves and each other on a journey around the UK to get to grips with the modern world,” said Emma-Rosa Dias, Afro-Mic Productions.
