This is a lovely festive treat- a really funny concept, beautifully brought to life and narrated by the comedy star of the year. It's BBC Three's Christmas pressie to the Fleabag audience.
Anomaly is releasing the new film starring Waller-Bridge, exploring the challenge of trying to fit an entire farmyard's-worth of poultry into a small North London flat.
In this modern re-telling of The 12 Days Of Christmas, we see that the gifting strategy in the original song is absolute lunacy as a woman is bombarded by poultry, animals and trees when her lover attempts to woe her with all of the gifts every day. How do you cope with such a bizarre onslaught of Christmas generosity? And what do you do when everyone around you seems to have come down with Christmas madness? That’s what Phoebe must find out…
Shane Allen, BBC Controller, Comedy Commissioning says: "This is a lovely festive treat- a really funny concept, beautifully brought to life and narrated by the comedy star of the year. It's BBC Three's Christmas pressie to the Fleabag audience."
Produced by Anomoly. Written by Craig Ainsley, directed by Ben White and Craig Ainsley, producers Mich Bradfield and Daisy Mellors. Animated by Ben White, Douglas Pledger and Tom Malins.
