‘The 6 x 30” series follows quick-witted, rebellious Holly (Jahannah James), a frustrated wannabe wrestler facing the challenge of a lifetime. When all of Boss Pro’s top wrestlers are poached by her brother Nick Nitro (Richard Fleeshman), Holly’s mum, Pam (Pippa Haywood) is left devastated as it looks as though it’s game over for the North West’s oldest pro-wrestling company. But, if Holly can bring together Boss Pro’s remaining gang of misfits, the company might just survive…if only Pam would allow Holly to wrestle herself.
We join the Boss Pro crew as they look toward a summer of slams and self-discovery – can our underdogs come together and come out on top to put on the show of a lifetime?’ X
Also in the cast: Paul Olima (newcomer), Alistair Petrie (Sex Education), Max Olesker (W1A), Ivan Gonzalez (W1A), Sasha Desouza-Willock (Adult Material) and Abby Russell (Hang Ups) with guest appearances from Matt Lucas (Little Britain), John Thomson (Cold Feet), Ben Ashenden (Stath Lets Flats) and Carla Langley (There She Goes), as well as some real-life pro-wrestlers.
So now we know what Sharon was working on when she posted this photo with Alistair Petrie! (And when I said to her, 'You’re blonde again!’, she said, 'Not blonde!’… so maybe we have ourselves an Ice Queen?!)
Lucky for us, we have a wrestling superfan in the My Mad Fat Diary/Sharon Rooney fandom, so please direct any sport-based queries to lovely @lilaviolet!
Do you ever just think about Pippa Haywood? She’s in everything but almost never does interviews. Sometimes she shows up for a single episode, collects a check, and leaves. And she somehow managed to make Julie Dodson a full on lesbian with just her body language. Queen shit.
