Each episode of the series features a parody music video, performed by a different comedian - including an "ageing boyband" who have reformed for some extra cash, a pop star trying to appeal to literally everyone and a grime artist trying to escape his crew.

The synopsis for the first episode reads: "Ageing boyband \'Boys Forever\', have decided to reform for a Christmas single. It might seem like a cynical cash-grab... because it is."

The show\'s Digital Executive Producer, Rebecca Hewett, expressed delight that Ashley, 38, would be presenting the show.
