The second series of Mawaan Rizwan’s zany comedy Juice premieres tonight on BBC Three, with back-to-back episodes at 9pm and 9.25pm. Based on Rizwan’s 2018 Edinburgh fringe show, the series continues to blend surreal storytelling with sharp humour.
The show follows Jamma (Rizwan), who is still jobless and sleeping on his friend Winnie’s sofa. He struggles to move on from his therapist ex-boyfriend Guy, played by guest star Russell Tovey. In the opening episode, Jamma decides to invite Guy to a party in a desperate attempt to rekindle their relationship.
The narrative takes a surreal turn involving a stained sofa, as Rizwan’s signature chaotic style unfolds. New episodes air weekly on BBC Three.
