UK B-BOY CHAMPIONSHIPS ON CHANNEL 4


Channel 4 has re-commissioned the second series on the trials and
tribulations of the world's greatest breakers, poppers & lockers in the
lead-up to the 2009 Sony Ericsson UK B-Boy Championships World Finals.

The six-part '2009 Sony Ericsson World B-Boy Series', will document the search to find the most talented break-dancers to compete at the World Finals. Plus, if you miss any action you can catch up on all the episodes by checking the official player on the right which will feature exclusive content from some of the world's most renowned breakers.

The first show which air's tomorrow, aims to open up the viewers eyes to the b-boy phenomenon worldwide and let them know that b-boy is still very much alive andkicking. Going back to the home of breakin' - the series kicks off in New York, the format is fast paced but with an analytical edge, to enhance the audience's understanding of the art form. Phil Young presents the show with expert help from competition founder and organiser Hooch who is on hand to give us commentary during the contest. Phil catches up with Hooch at regular intervals during the competition to get our pundit's take on proceedings. Also featured is the original b-boy, Crazy Legs (70's Rock Steady Crew) at the annual Rock Steady anniversary bash in Central park, NY.

New locations have been incorporated into the second series with stops
in China and Helsinki, as well as visits to Korea and Europe's biggest
breakin' festival, Holland's IBE. The final show will feature highlights
from the World Final - which takes place here in London in October and
is also hosted by the incomparable Crazy Legs!
