C4, Neil Morrissey to make 'Perfect Pint'

Morrissey in 'Waterloo Road'

Neil Morrissey will attempt to set up a pub and brew the perfect pint of ale in a new series for Channel 4.

The actor and a mate will travel the UK to find a pub to run and find the perfect recipe for their beer. Once they take a lease they will have six months to get it running successfully.

Morrissey wants to create an "everyman's ale" that will attract all drinkers - not just "men with sparrows in their beard".

Three hour-long episodes of Neil Morrissey's Perfect Pint are being lined up for a 10pm weeknights slot later this year.

Zoe Collins, who will executive produce for Fresh One, which is partnering with TalkbackThames on the show, said: "I can think of few programme-makers who wouldn't jump at the chance to make a TV series about beer and with Neil Morrissey, what a joyous prospect is that."
