The inaugural series of Sky One comedy-drama television series Brassic began broadcasting on 22 August 2019. Throughout the series, the directing credits rotated between Daniel O'Hara and Jon Wright: O'Hara directed the first three episodes whereas Wright directed the second half.[1] The programme was created by Joe Gilgun, who also portrays the lead role of Vinnie O'Neill, and Danny Brocklehurst, who also wrote five episodes of the first series.[1]
Brassic follows the lives of Vinnie (Gilgun) and his five friends as they live their lives in the fictional northern English town of Hawley. The working class group commit various crimes to keep money in their pockets, but as they get older some of them wonder if there's more to life away from the town.[2] The rest of the main cast includes Michelle Keegan, Damien Molony, Tom Hanson, Aaron Heffernan, Ryan Sampson, Parth Thakerar, Steve Evets, Ruth Sheen, Anthony Welsh and Dominic West.[1]
