New series about water

Jo Brand is to make a four-part series about… water.

The hour-long programmes, for digital channel Dave, will investigate what is supposedly ‘British people’s obsession’ and ‘occasionally bizarre relationship’ with the common liquid.

Jo Brand’s Big Splash will mix stand-up with travelogue as the comic explores the seaside, pool parties and water sports.

Dave’s head Steve North said the commission was part of the channel’s ‘strong stable of on-brand, original content’.
