The Future of MB & Homeland

In our most recent podcast we announced that we were thinking of closing the channel with in the next two years. This is because people like CEO Mark Bray will be going to University September 2017 and won't have time to manage the channel unless someone else became the CEO. It is possible that Mark will take a gap year from September 2017 to 2018 but this is uncertain at the moment. Either way the channel will close by September 2018.


We are going to keep the channel LIVE with all our videos on, we aren't deleting any of the films we've made but we just won't be creating content any more.

Things to look forward to:

  • We are currently filming our brand new Doctor Who FanFilm Series. This will come out 16th July 2016 and will air up until Christmas day 2016. There will be a total of 9 episodes plus a 10th Anniversary movie. We are planning on making a Doctor Who movie next year because we don't have any plans to make another series but we are discussing it at the moment.
  • We are currently finishing filming on a brand new season we are making called 'Political Rage' this series will have a total of 3 episodes and filming on a second season has already begun. Season one is scheduled to come out on the 22nd October 2016. Season two will probably come out Autumn 2017.
  • We are currently in production of a new Star Wars FanFilm which will air 4th May 2017. This film is called 'Darkness Of The Republic' and it will star Mark Bray, Tom Ford, Jordan Crowther-Russell & Franki Lang. There are no plans to make any more Star Wars films after this but we are discussing it at the moment.
  • We are still going to make comedy sketches every so often, the last one we made was in September 2015, hopefully a new one will be coming soon. We are also hoping to bring out a short film every year up until our closure.
  • We are still making gameplays on the 25th of every month and we are still hosting 'Race To The White House' on the 10th of every month. Race To The White House probably won't be continuing next year because the election will have finished but we will still be making gameplays.
  • Hopefully in 2017 we will be bring out a new monthly series to replace Race To The White House, this is currently being discussed and we will have information soon.
  • News Update is still being produced and airing on the 15th of every month, this will continue every month until we close.
  • Behind The Lens is still being made and coming out on the 20th of every month but it might not continue next year, that is being discussed at the moment.
  • If Mark Bray did take a gap year from 2017 to 2018, we would probably produce a stand alone movie. This isn't definite yet but we'll know by May 2017.

A few members of MB & Homeland are planning on leave in September to go to university. Hopefully a few new people will be joining in a few months, at the moment no one really knows what they'll be doing next year, but we will try our hardest to keep the channel alive until September 2018. After that we will no longer be making content but all the videos will remain LIVE.
