Nations
In episode one Rhod Gilbert and Midge Ure set off on an epic road trip across Scotland, Northern Ireland and Wales to discover the UK's Best Part-Time Band.
From across the UK, more than 1,200 bands have entered the competition, playing rock to reggae, ska to skiffle, bhangra to blues and everything in between. Leading double lives, by day they might be doctors, window cleaners or waiters, but at night they shed their work clothes, pick up a guitar and channel their inner rock god. What binds them all? An incredible passion for music and an escape from the 9 to 5 grind.
This is no ordinary talent show - this is a rock ‘n' roll documentary following Rhod and Midge on tour, visiting bands playing in rehearsal spaces, pubs, barns and bedrooms.
At the end of the road trip, five acts will be selected for a regional heat in Belfast, where they compete for a place in the Grand Final, of the ‘The UK's Best Part-time Band'.
