In 2026 they will transport you to the Yorkshire Dales in a hilarious quest to revive a lost recipe.

This charming tale promises a gouda time as it immerses you in a world of ghosts, grievances, and glorious cheese.
We’ll delve into the rich history of cheese, from its humble beginnings to its place on the most sophisticated platters, featuring a cast of characters who are whey out there.
Expect a cheesy plot, a sprinkle of drama, and plenty of fromage-tastic musical numbers.
Join us for a slice of the action – it’s going to be a legen-dairy Mikron show.
It’s time to Brie-lieve in the power of cheese!
