Black Knights to appear in New E4 Sketch Show
21 Aug 2008

Black Knights from Gravesend in Kent are to appear in two episodes of a new comedy sketch show, “Beehive” to be shown on E4 later in the year. The show, to consist of five episodes, will star stand-up comedian Sarah Kendall, Alice Lowe (Garth Margenhi's Darkplace), Barunka O'Shaughnessy (Respectable) and Clare Thompson from the sketch group 'Piggy Nero'.
 
The show’s producers, Tiger Aspect were keen to involve Black Knights in the project following their work on the Samsung Viral shoot earlier this month. Members of the corps will be filming on two dates in September.
 
Rus Rogers from the Black Knights development team adds: "We have been working hard this year to raise the corps profile and develop new performance opportunities and experiences for our members. We are very happy that our efforts are paying off."
 
This will not be the corps first televised performance, having previously appeared in the London Christmas Parade, as well as appearing in a spoof music video with comedian Tim Minchin and the cadets appearing on Basil Brush's Swap Shop earlier this year.
