On the Terrace: Killing Time

In episode three of On the Terrace, host Vaya Pashos talks with Night Terrace creators David Ashton (audio engineer/sound designer) and Ben McKenzie (writer and Eddie Jones) about episode three: “Time of Death”.

The house lands Anastasia and Eddie in a seaside English village in 1929 – and in the middle of a murder investigation. What’s more, the victim is Sue! Vaya, David and Ben talk about this episode’s glamorous sleuth, time travel shenanigans and brilliant guest stars Virginia Gay and Andrew McClelland.

Episode three of Night Terrace, “Time of Death”, is available on BBC Radio 4 Extra for 30 days after broadcast. You can also listen to episode one for free, and purchase the rest of the series, via nightterrace.com or the Splendid Chaps Bandcamp store.

On the Terrace: Heading Back

In our second episode of On the Terrace, host Vaya Pashos talks with two of Night Terrace’s creators, writer Lee Zachariah and star Petra Elliott (Sue), about episode two: “Starship Australis”!

Anastasia and Eddie have returned to Melbourne – or have they? The stars aren’t quite right, the locals seem a bit weird and the calendar is a way off… Join Vaya, Lee and Petra for a chat as they decode the Aussie slang, Neighbours references and definitely-not-political commentary in one of the most Australian episodes of this Australian comedy series.

This episode of On the Terrace was recorded at Stove Monkey cafe at 191 Clarendon Street in South Melbourne. Episode two of Night Terrace, “Starship Australis”, is available on BBC Radio 4 Extra for 30 days after broadcast. You can also listen to episode one for free, and purchase the rest of the series, via nightterrace.com or the Splendid Chaps Bandcamp store.

On the Terrace: Blasting Off

It’s the first full episode of On the Terrace, the after-show for the time travel comedy Night Terrace! Settle in with host Vaya Pashos (Neighbuzz) for chat with members of the cast and crew. This week we discuss Night Terrace episode one: “Moving House”.

Anastasia Black discovers her house can travel through space and time – and gets stuck with the enthusiastic but gormless Eddie Jones. Vaya chats with guests John Richards (co-producer, head writer and writer of this episode) and Ben McKenzie (co-producer and the actor behind Eddie Jones) about the origins of Eddie, the D.E.P.A.R.T.M.E.N.T., and the house, as well as the planning that went into this crucial first episode, how things have changed in the five years since it was made and much more.

This episode of On the Terrace was recorded at Stove Monkey cafe at 191 Clarendon Street in South Melbourne. Episode one of Night Terrace, “Moving House”, is available on BBC Radio 4 Extra for 30 days after broadcast. You can also listen to episode one for free, and purchase the rest of the series, via nightterrace.com or the Splendid Chaps Bandcamp store.

Coming soon to a BBC near you!

We said we’d have some big news early this year – and this is it! Night Terrace is coming to the BBC! To celebrate, we’re making a new podcast discussing the show – and we want to answer your questions!

Landing on BBC radio from April 21

Beginning April 21, Night Terrace season one – or series one, to use the BBC term – will be broadcast weekly on Sundays on BBC digital channel Radio 4 Extra at 6 PM UK time (that should be 3 AM Monday morning, Melbourne time, given he changeover for daylight savings). It will also be rebroadcast at midnight (9 AM Monday our time), and each episode will be available internationally in the BBC iPlayer (aka BBC Sounds) for 30 days after broadcast. After a break, series two will follow in the same timeslot from August 25.

You’ll see Night Terrace pop up in the Radio 4 Extra schedule about two weeks before broadcast. If you can’t wait until then, you can still listen to episode one right here, and both series – plus two mini-series and our live recorded special – remain on sale on our web site and in our Bandcamp store.

For media enquiries, please contact Barbara Wright at The Wright Word Publicity via thewrightwordpublicity@gmail.com. Review copies are available to media.

On the Terrace

Watch this site for more on this new project very soon!

Cast and crew will also be answering questions from fans, and we’d love you to send in yours! Email them to us at info@nightterrace.com and we’ll do our best to answer them.
