A compilation of the biggest belly-laughs from the series, Christmas special and pilot.
Paddy Raff is back with a brand new festive edition of his hit sketch show, featuring festive mayhem and family traditions unique to Northern Ireland. Paddy shares his comic selection-box of relatable observations about the big day - everything from struggling to get a family photo with Santa to being unable to get the kids’ toys out of their boxes. There are laughs up in BT9 as the Malone Road’s most talked-about resident Nigel launches his very own 'Chit Show' with none other than snooker legend Dennis Taylor as his first guest. On the other side of the tracks, salty Granny Raff is making her famous stuffing for half the street,but with an accidental addition of a potent herby ingredient, it won’t just be the Xmas pudding that’s baked. The rocking and raving priest Father Pat returns with his band Prayerosmith, and furloughed flight attendant Kara-Lynne jumps right into her a new role as chief elf at a Santa's grotto.
Snobby socialite Nigel leaves BT9 and heads ‘up west’ for a date with an instagrammer from LA - will she share Nigel’s love of fine dining, foie gras and ramen? Granny Raff and her man-friend Harry pay their respects at the wake of her next door neighbour, but tears are shed for something more than the dearly departed Phyllis. The rocking and raving priest Father Pat tries to broaden his All-Request Mass appeal by becoming a videogamer - but an unplanned live confession is what ends up going viral. And furloughed flight attendant Kara-Lynne dishes out her own brand of sass as the face ‘Fryinair’, Belfast’s newest pop-up restaurant serving airplane meals on the ground.
Granny Raff discovers her daughter Denise has finally landed a job, but the shocking details of what the work involves makes Granny lose her appetite for Belfast baps. Having disgraced himself by accidently live streaming a confession on his All-Request Mass, Father Pat finds himself working the phone lines back in the parish Ecumenicall Centre. Paddy goes on a stag-do dressed as the Incredible Hulk but behaves nothing like a super-hero. And after another disastrous date, Nigel opens up about his first marriage break-up, and with wingman Jarlath on the piano he performs his version of heartbreak anthem I Will Survive.
Nigel has a fireside ‘chit’ up in Malone with BBC Breakfast’s Holly Hamilton. How will Holly handle being his new BT9 TV sports reporter, and can Nigel persuade her to become a brand ambassador for his latest venture, Champfast sparkling tonic wine? Former flight attendant Kara-Lynne gets taken for a ride in her latest new job. There’s turbulence, but her experience of managing stag and hen parties at 36,000 feet comes in handy. Father Pat the raving priest is invited to headline the prestigious God-Fest at Belfast’s Saint Francis of SSE Arena. He performs alongside acts like Our Lady Gaga, but not everyone in the packed stadium is a Father Pat fan; Eileen stages a one-woman protest. Granny Raff is babysitting grandson Dylan, who answers the door to a local politician canvassing for her vote. Granny shares her own clear message for politicians, teaching young Dylan a valuable life lesson in getting rid of such unwelcome callers.
The best bits of series 2, presented by Nigel live and direct from the Malone Road’s posh new BT9 TV station. Nigel’s own highlights include going up west for a date with an Instagrammer from L.A. He also recalls launching Nigel’s Chit Show where he interviewed snooker legend Dennis Taylor and BBC Breakfast’s Holly Hamilton. Granny Raff’s best bits includes that time she was babysitting young grandson Dylan and a canvassing politician unexpectedly called round. Father Pat continues to preach his interdenominational message of ‘beats be with you’ in his all-request mass. Paddy’s mind flies into orbit thinking about a family holiday to Mars, and he feels like a complete alien when trying to make small talk with a plumber who just wants to fix his boiler.
