Chabuddy G moves in with Steves

DJ Steves doesn't remember agreeing to let Chabuddy G move in to his flat...

Featuring: Asim Chaudhry (Chabuddy G) & Steve Stamp (Steves).

The last Kurupt FM set ever

It's the end of Kurupt FM, and as Grindah bids farewell to Brentford, Beats has planned a final send-off before his big move.

Featuring: Allan 'Seapa' Mustafa (Grindah), Hugo Chegwin (Beats), Asim Chaudhry (Chabuddy G), Steve Stamp (Steves), Dan Sylvester (Decoy), Lily Brazier (Michelle) & Olivia Jasmine Edwards (Angel).

Press

The flawless comedy says goodbye without excessive fanfare, although a farewell tour of Brentford landmarks brings out how deeply Beats loves his awful mentor, Grindah. Meanwhile, Asim Chaudhry shows why he is the breakout star of the series as Chabuddy G slides incompetently into the tech-repair business.
