Three months have passed, the band has been gigging non-stop without a sniff from a record company. Fiona and Jez confront Art who agrees to put on an industry showcase at Glasgow Barrowlands. All they have to do now is sell 500 tickets in six days, prepare for the A & R onslaught and sign a deal ... with Slick Sloan from Massive Mix Records.
The Young Person's Guide to Becoming a Rock Star is a British comedy series, which aired on Channel 4 in 1998. It was a six-part satirical take on the music industry, written by Skins creator Bryan Elsley. The plot centered around a young Glaswegian band - Jocks Wa Hey - as they struggle to find success.
The series won the 'Best Drama Serial' award at the 1999 RTS Television Awards and, that same year, writer Bryan Esley was nominated in the RTS 'Best Writer' category for the series.
It was remade as My Guide to Becoming a Rock Star, a short-lived American/Canadian series that starred Oliver Hudson and was made for the now defunct The WB Television Network.
