Northern Ireland’s Green Inc Film & Television have announced that DRG (Digital Rights Group) have signed an international distribution agreement for the new primetime BBC comedy entertainment series, ‘Ask Rhod Gilbert’. The series, which started its broadcast on Monday, September 27th will shoot in Belfast’s BBC Black Staff Studios on the 1st and 8th of November.

Hosted by award winning stand-up comedian Rhod Gilbert, ‘Ask Rhod Gilbert’ is a studio entertainment format that sees the show’s namesake getting to grips with a series of burning questions posed by well-known personalities and members of the public. Rhod, along with comedian Greg Davies (The Inbetweeners) and emerging stand-up comedian Lloyd Langford, aim to provide all the answers.

The 8x40” shows will be recorded weekly in Glasgow, London and finally Belfast with each episode broadcasting after its shoot. Each of the eight episodes features studio demonstrations, experiments, archive clips, internet distractions, recorded phone calls and visual link-ups from home and around the world.

The Green Inc produced show was commissioned by Controller of BBC One, Jay Hunt; Mark Linsey, BBC Controller of Entertainment Commissioning and Alan Tyler, BBC Executive Editor Entertainment. The producer on board from Green Inc is Chris Curley (Room 101) and the series’ director is Paul Wheeler (Dara O’Briain Talks Funny: Live in London). The executive producers for Green Inc are Stephen Stewart (Patrick Kielty . . .Almost Live) alongside the BBC’s Chris Jones and Alan Tyler (The Funny Side Of . . .).

DRG will premiere the UK series and the format to the worldwide market at MIPCOM in the next few days. ‘Ask Rhod Gilbert’ broadcasts on Monday evenings at 11.05pm on BBC One.
