UKTV has recommissioned Bangers & Cash<\/em> for its Yesterday channel and UKTV Play, with 46 new episodes across four seasons, as well as 12 episodes of Bangers & Cash: Restoring Classics<\/em>.<\/p>\n The franchise follows the work of the Mathewsons Classic Car Auction team, which discovers and auctions over 4,000 classic and rare vehicles per year. UKTV\u2019s recommission represents the highest number of episodes ever ordered by the network for one program at one time.<\/p>\n \u201cI\u2019m so pleased we can demonstrate our commitment to Air TV, the Mathewsons and our viewers with such a large order of episodes for Bangers & Cash<\/em>,\u201d \u00a0said Kirsty Hanson, commissioning editor at UKTV. \u201cIt\u2019s such a pleasure to work on the Bangers & Cash<\/em> franchise, and I\u2019m personally very excited to continue our collaboration across the next few years.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cI\u2019m delighted that UKTV have committed to creating so many new series of Bangers & Cash<\/em> and Restoring Classics<\/em>,\u201d commented Andy Joynson, executive producer of the series for Air TV. \u201cThere really is a limitless supply of astonishing cars out there for the Mathewsons to feature, restore and auction. It\u2019s a privilege to be able to spend more time making a program we love making.\u201d<\/p>\n Gerald Casey, director of Yesterday, added, \u201cBangers<\/em> is at the heart of the Yesterday schedule, and it\u2019s a phenomenal achievement to be able to recommission so many new series at once. We\u2019re proud that we can continue to make a program that resonates with such a large audience and continues to excite both Yesterday and UKTV Play viewers.\u201d<\/p>\n Derek Mathewson, head of the Mathewson family, said, \u201cMore Bangers & Cash<\/em>? Well, it\u2019s amazing, isn\u2019t it? Who would have thought it? I thought we\u2019d have done a series. Two would have been a bonus. But then again, now I realize the popularity of the show. The amount of people who visit us and say they\u2019ve come specifically to see the place from TV, and they\u2019re so enthusiastic about it. And to this day I still get people say that the program got them through lockdown\u2013that means an awful lot to us.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" UKTV has recommissioned Bangers & Cash for its Yesterday channel and UKTV Play, with 46 new episodes across four seasons, as well as 12 episodes of Bangers & Cash: Restoring Classics.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1412,"featured_media":20011,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"pmpro_default_level":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[69],"tags":[8073,8074,8075,8076,6101,8077,8078,309,7497,3745],"class_list":["post-20010","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","","category-top-stories","tag-andy-joynson","tag-bangers-cash","tag-bangers-cash-restoring-classics","tag-derek-mathewson","tag-gerald-casey","tag-kirsty-hanson","tag-mathewsons-classic-car-auction","tag-uktv","tag-uktv-play","tag-yesterday","pmpro-has-access"],"yoast_head":"\n
