DESCRIPTION:
(from Apple's press release, October 2026) Today, Apple TV revealed details of the new comedic drama "The Choir," the highly anticipated eight-episode series about family, friendship, love and music from Ruth Jones and James Corden. "The Choir" marks the multi-award-winning writers and stars' first project together since the record-breaking "Gavin & Stacey: The Finale." Jones and Corden also serve as executive producers on the series, now in production and set to premiere globally on Apple TV in 2027. Brother and sister Ben (Corden) and Lisa (Jones) haven't seen each other for several years. Ben has been living abroad, while Lisa has carried on in their small English town, where nothing ever happens. But when events take a sorry turn, Ben is forced to return to a life he never wanted, a town he never liked and a family from which he's estranged. Can the unlikely healing of a rift with his big sister come in the form of a struggling local choir and the ensemble who sing their hearts out each week? |
