Picking Cherries has been going since November 2014 and is one of our longest running shows.

The reason for cancelling is mainly to do with a lack of views. We have released 29 Episodes of the show, we will finish on our 31st.

Our First Podcast

Christmas Special Filming has begun...

Filming has restarted on the Christmas Special, we began it in March back when it snowed very heavily in the UK.

The cast all came together on Saturday to film a large portion of the Christmas Special. Now there are only a few small gaps to fill in, then editing will commence.

Despite being Christmas, the episode won't be very festive. It's going to go down a much darker route. The episode will mainly certain around something terrible happening which has a huge impact on The Doctor and the future.

What's in the bag?

Everything changing at MB & Homeland in 2019

We are at the moment getting all our plans together for next year, here is a list of everything that will be changing to the channel as of January 2019.

New Logo:

Work on a new logo has already begun and will replace the current on January 1st. The new logo will hopefully reflect the channel more and relate to the content we make. The logo is currently being edited by several different members to make sure it looks the best that it can be.

Updated Blogger Layout:

This change has already begun, our blogger has now a new colour scheme and layout, to match the channel and theme of the content.

New Series? Maybe

We are currently thinking of bringing out a new comedy series called 'Society' which will take the mick out of weird things people do in society which is considered normal and acceptable. This series is could be quite controversial, that's why we are quite hesitant to bring it out. This series would not release until late 2019 into 2020.

Carpool Podcast? Maybe

We've recently been trying to come up with a new way to present our podcasts, we are currently in discussion about possibly turning it into a carpool series, where we drive around with a special guest in the back scene. The series would be presented by Jordan, Sam and Mark with a special guest each month. This could start as early as October 2018.

Everyone Is Returning!

So at the moment we are super busy at MB & Homeland, getting ready to film the Christmas Special, as well as working out what our plans are for next year.

A small survey was posted in a private MB & Homeland group with members to find out who would be up for returning for the next year content. In this survey we explained a little bit about our plans, include some plot points, and so far everyone responded extra excited for the plans, and everyone from Series 4 will be returning for next year, including some new faces.

We've also been working on our police box recently, but we can reveal just yet what we've done.

Hopefully by the beginning of October we will have a trailer for the Christmas Special, as well as a finale announcement on our plans next year.

The Future Plans For MB & Homeland

Last Saturday we all sat down and had a meeting discussing the plans for the rest of this year and next year. We have finally reached a agreement on what will happen. The plan is...

Doctor Who Episode 12 - Coming Christmas 2018
So with Episode 11 coming out this Saturday. Some of you are wondering what are future plans are for Doctor Who. We will bring out a twelve episode this Christmas to conclude Series 4.

Channel Logo Update - Coming January 2019
We've been looking at our channel logo for the last couple of weeks and feel like it needs a big update. A lot of people don't know why a Cat and the Earth are in our logo, so it would be better to start fresh and include something new. Our channel is quite well known for our Tardis Interior and Exterior, so maybe putting a police box on the logo might make more sense.

Political Rage Short Film - Coming Early 2019
Some people have been wondering what will happen with Political Rage, seeing as Season 2 ended on a cliffhanger. We've decided that we will wrap up the story in a short film ranging from 10 - 15 minutes.

Star Wars Lost With The Force - Coming Mid 2019
A lot of people are very confused about Star Wars, and we don't blame you. We brought out a Trailer for our next Star Wars film May 2017, and no one has heard anything since, we can now reveal that it will be coming out sometime in the middle of 2019.

Doctor Who Specials - Coming Late 2019
We are very pleased to announce that after Series 4 there will be a few specials coming late 2019. How many specials? We can't say yet, but no more than 4 or 5. So far we have some amazing ideas to use for these episodes and we will be working extra hard to make them the best stories we've ever done.

The Future - Being Of 2020
We aren't sure exactly what will happen after 2019, we fear that we might slowly fade away as so many of us are moving on with our lives, heading off to universities, jobs, starting families, etc, but one thing is certain. Our Episodes & Films will always be available on YouTube.

Series 4 - The episodes so far

Episode 1 to 5 have been uploaded to the YouTube channel and can be found here

Sam, Brandon & Tom on a break between filming

So far the feedback has been great and there haven't been any really big complains or problems with the episodes. Episode 6 will air this Saturday

Some people have been wondering how many episodes there will be. We can reveal that there are a total of 12 episodes. 11 of them will air from April until July. The last episode will be the Christmas Special in which filming begins very soon.

Doctor Who Series 4: Behind The Scenes Photos

With the last bits of filming and editing happening on Series 4. We thought it would be fun to share some of our favourite behind the scenes photos from filming.

We hope you enjoyed this small glimpse of whats to come. We only have 17 days until Series 4 comes out.
