Summarised from 2 outlets · Updated 10 Oct, 15:19 · Archive

James Corden and Ruth Jones are reuniting to create and star in The Choir, an eight-part Apple TV+ comedy drama premiering in 2027.

James Corden and Ruth Jones, the creators of the BBC sitcom Gavin and Stacey, are reuniting for a new eight-part Apple TV+ comedy drama called The Choir. The pair will write, star and serve as executive producers on the show, which is currently in production and due to premiere worldwide in 2027. This marks their first major collaboration since Gavin & Stacey: The Finale, which concluded the beloved sitcom in 2024.

The new series will see Corden and Jones play estranged siblings Ben and Lisa. Ben has been living abroad while Lisa has remained in their quiet English hometown, but circumstances force him to return and confront old family tensions. A struggling local choir becomes the setting for the pair to repair their fractured relationship.

The show will feature high-profile guest appearances from Ted Lasso star Hannah Waddingham, X-Men actor James McAvoy and Oscar-winning actor Jim Broadbent. Corden and Jones's partnership stretches back more than 25 years, having first met while working on Fat Friends before creating Gavin & Stacey, one of Britain's most successful sitcoms.
