Fast Food Face Off on iPlayer and BBC One



Date Posted: July 7, 2021

Brand new show Fast Food Face Off will be available on iPlayer from Monday 12th July and will also air on BBC One at 10.35pm on Monday 19th July. Produced by Stellify Media the show was pitched as part of the Northern Ireland Screen, BBC NI and BBC Three Youth Content Development Scheme.

Stand Up Comic Josh Jones loves to eat amazing food but, because of a busy work and travel schedule, he usually ends up living off takeaways. That doesn’t mean his taste buds have to be disappointed though – oh no – he likes his fast food to be fancy. And he likes it to be served with a healthy portion of drama!

Today he’s in Northern Ireland to pit two of the tastiest takeaways in town against each other. Chosen by local superstars Kristian Nairn (Hordor, Game of Thrones) and Gemma Bradley (Radio One) there can be only one winner in the Fast Food Face Off and to find out who will take home the trophy the entrepreneurial and street smart chefs must go head to head in some tantalising taste tests and timed challenges. Starting with The Usual, Josh samples his celebrity guests go-to grub, before putting both establishments through their paces in the bulk order challenge The Big Eats, before finishing with The Special – the chef’s choice. Only one takeaway will be victorious  – but which one has the recipe for success?
