Joe Gilgun plays Vinnie

What’s Vinnie like? Despite facing challenges in his upbringing, he’s a resilient individual who thrives amidst life’s difficulties. He is the head of a tight-knit friend circle and leans on them for support during the tumultuous phases of life, including his personal battles with bipolar disorder.

Have I encountered Joe Gilgun in any other shows or movies? (Gilgun co-created Brassic, which is heavily influenced by his personal upbringing experiences, and he is also known for acting roles such as This Is England, Emmerdale, Misfits, Preacher, and Pride.)

Michelle Keegan plays Erin

In simpler terms, who is Erin? She’s a strong-willed mother of one who aims to provide her son with the chances she missed growing up in Hawley. Initially, she had thoughts about leaving Hawley, but she found that her connections with her friends make it a place worth staying in.

Have I not crossed paths with the captivating Michelle Keegan before? Known for her breakout role on Coronation Street as Tina McIntyre, she has since graced our screens in productions like Our Girl, Ordinary Lies, and Ten Pound Poms. It seems we’ll be seeing her again, this time joining forces with the BAFTA-winning Danny Brocklehurst for Netflix’s Fool Me Once.

Tom Hanson plays Cardi

Who is Cardi? She’s the affectionate, somewhat shy member of the gang, frequently seeking comfort at the local kebab stand and running errands for the group.

Have I encountered Tom Hanson somewhere else? He starred in The Outlaws, The Tunnel, and Silent Witness.

Aaron Heffernan plays Ash

Who is Ash? Ash hails from a tough-as-nails fighting clan residing on the fringes of Hawley, in a traveler settlement. He openly identifies as gay and finds solace among his peers, yet he can swiftly escalate to violence when needed.

Have you recognized Aaron Heffernan from any previous roles? He’s been featured in shows like War of the Worlds, Atlanta, and Love/Hate.

Ryan Sampson plays Tommo

Inquisitive as to the identity of Tommo, it’s worth noting that he tends to keep to himself but has lately initiated a string of exclusive BDSM events catering to affluent patrons.

Have I encountered Ryan Sampson in any previous roles? (Yes, he’s been in “Plebs”, “The Frankenstein Chronicles”, “Doctor Who” and “Waiting”.)

Parth Thakerar plays JJ

Who is JJ? He’s an individual who has opted for a different career path than his family, who are mostly doctors and lawyers. Instead, he runs his own car workshop in Hawley. Although he’s not entirely comfortable with the questionable activities of the group, he does supply speedy vehicles whenever necessary.

I recall seeing Parth Thakerar on various television series like Gangs of London, Starstruck, Vigil, as well as the recently adapted version of Great Expectations for 2023.

Bronagh Gallagher plays Carol

Who exactly is Carol? She is Ash’s sister from another parent, and she wed Cardi following their nuptials in the season finale. However, she isn’t someone to trifle with, as she harbors secrets of her own.

Have you recognized Bronagh Gallagher from her roles in shows like Pramface or films such as The Life and Adventures of Nick Nickleby, The Commitments, Star Wars Episode One: The Phantom Menace, or Pulp Fiction?

Dominic West plays Dr Chris Coxley

I’m a cinema enthusiast, and as for who Dr Chris Coxley is, well, he’s Vinnie’s general practitioner who’s turned into a confidant of sorts – someone Vinnie can pour his heart out to about his life’s challenges. However, when it comes to medical skills, he’s not exactly the sharpest tool in the shed; instead, he shows more enthusiasm for procuring drugs from Vinnie.

Have you come across Dominic West in any of his previous acting roles? He has been featured prominently in series such as The Wire, The Crown, The Affair, 300 and SAS: Rogue Heroes.

Steve Evets plays Farmer Jim

Who might “Farmer Jim” be? Well, he’s known for being somewhat gruff and straightforward, yet he’s proven quite beneficial to our group throughout different seasons.

Have I encountered Steve Evets in any previous roles or productions? If yes, can you specify where I might recognize him from?

A Very Brassic Christmas guest stars

Imelda Staunton plays Aunt Edie

Who is Aunt Edie? She is Chris’s aunt, a former primary school teacher who now finds herself in a predicament during the Christmas season and requires some assistance.

Have I encountered Imelda Staunton in any previous films or series? Indeed, she and Dominic West have worked together before, as they portray the Queen and Prince Charles respectively in The Crown. Furthermore, Staunton is recognized for her performances in Vera Drake, Harry Potter, Nanny McPhee, Downton Abbey, Chicken Run, among other productions.

Greg Davies plays Dick Dolphin

Who is Dick Dolphin, you ask? Well, he’s the fellow who manages our local winter wonderland. One day, he encounters the Brassic gang, who require his assistance in obtaining certain nativity props.

Have I encountered Greg Davies somewhere else? This comedian and actor might ring a bell due to his role as the Taskmaster in the show “Taskmaster”, or perhaps because he starred in and wrote “The Cleaner”, or maybe for his memorable performances as Mr Gilbert in “The Inbetweeners” or facing off against the main character as Ken Thompson in “Cuckoo”.

The sixth season of the show “Brassic” is set to be aired on Sky Max and NOW towards the end of this year. If you haven’t caught up yet, you can stream seasons 1 through 4 of “Brassic” on Netflix.
