HOW OFTEN WILL THE SHOW
BE BROADCAST?
THE
BAWS
YFS is
moving into
broadcast
media with
an online
TV show.
TELL US A BIT ABOUT WHAT
THE SHOW WILL FEATURE.
Essentially there are three key
elements to Kickin’ The Baws
Firstly there will be a studio section,
featuring three presenters who will
by leading the show in front of a live
studio audience.
We will also be asking bands to
appear in the studio to perform live
music. Secondly, there will be team
challenges every episode. This might
include penalty challenges or kick
up competitions that we will ask
different youth football teams in
Scotland to take on. The final part of
the show and something that we’re
very excited about is the sketch
show element. Each Kickin’ The Baws
broadcast we will be following the
antics of Julie Norton, Stacey Broon,
James Fox and Serious Steve four characters who share a passion
for football but differ in a number of
hilarious ways.
WHEN DOES IT START AND
WHEN WILL KICKIN’ THE BAWS
BE AVAILABLE TO VIEW?
We’re hoping to have the show up
and running by the end of November
and from then on it will be available
to view either on our YouTube
channel or on the website at our url www.kickinthebaws.com
An episode every six weeks or so is
what we are aiming for. The running
time of each episode will differ
depending on the content but the
sketch show characters will remain
constant with each sketch show
taking an episodic form.
WHAT COMPARISONS WOULD
YOU GIVE BETWEEN KICKIN’
THE BAWS AND OTHER WELLKNOWN SPORTS/COMEDY
SHOWS?
We certainly have drawn influences
from shows such as Soccer AM,
A Question of Sport and even TV
sitcoms like Gary Tank Commander
with regards to the sketch character
side of things.
Saying that, we feel that what
we are producing is unique, as it is
centred on the topic of Scottish youth
football. While it’s important to draw
inspiration from successful shows,
we want to provide something that’s
fresh and exciting for our audience.
WHAT HAVE YOU ENJOYED
ABOUT WORKING ON THE
KICKIN’ THE BAWS SHOW SO
FAR?
While there is a lot of work that goes
into producing a show like
