The Great North Road

Good old reliable BBC.

Smoggie Queens has been made by Hat Trick Productions, which pulled the Father Ted musical. Someone with knowledge of the show has contacted to say: "It's horrendous. A fetish club features heavily. It normalises pups, BDSM, cross-dressing and denigrating lesbians." 2/2 pic.twitter.com/dHKm7JNCPS

Also when’s the last time the Beeb aired a new comedy telling the story of a group of lesbians living in Rochdale? Or anywhere else?

Graham adds: it’s not real, it’s chat gpt. Which is a good joke in itself, real or not.

This looks…terrible. As a fan of the actor Mark Renton I’m disappointed to see him in this unpromising program.

Had to lookup the word Smoggie, and it refers to the air in the Teesside region. Probably the only town I am familiar with there is Middlesborough. Close to Yorkshire.
