In this bonus episode of The Middle-aged Bodcast, Rich and T.A. revisit their original idea for Bliss Revisited – a fictional girl band reunion story full of drama, nostalgia and festive chaos. What began as a short film years ago is now reimagined as a six-part sitcom packed with pop comebacks, viral fame and a race for Christmas number one.

You’ll hear how they’d cast the show today (Jason Manford? Tulisa?), how social media would fuel the comeback, and why one ex-member becomes their biggest rival. Expect heart, humour and hilarity – plus original songs like the uplifting Spread Some Christmas Cheer and the gloriously awful Santa’s Sack.

It’s Girls5eva meets Gavin & Stacey – with a little Office-style awkwardness thrown in. If you love fictional bands, festive showdowns and the magic of a great comeback, this one’s for you.

Next week, Season 4 begins and we have a very special guest joining us!
