Champion Q&A with Candice Carty-Williams | BFI Q&A

Champion is the much-anticipated first TV project for Candice Carty-Williams, author of The Sunday Times bestselling novel Queenie. Carty Williams, alongside Déja J Bowens, Malcolm Kamulete, Ray BLK and John Ogunmuyiwa, visits the BFI Southbank to talk about the show.

Rap sensation Bosco is ready to dominate the music industry once more. But when his younger sister Vita is discovered, she becomes a performer in her own right, tearing apart the whole family in the process. A love letter to Black British music, Champion is a celebration of a sound that has long been the beating heart of our culture.

The show features an album’s worth of original music, written and produced by some of the UK’s leading artists, from singer-songwriter and 2017 BBC Music Sound Of prize-winner Ray BLK to grime pioneer, and BRIT and Mercury Prize-nominated Ghetts.

Champion continues Saturday 9:15pm on BBC One, all episodes are available now on BBC iPlayer: https://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episodes/p0frq6zd/champion
