Dukes Of Broxstonia - Series 3

Sticky Pictures, 2013

Bow down to rock!

The Dukes are the hottest band to come out of Bröxstônia. Ever. The band is composed of teenagers - singer, Arj, drummer, Barj and guitarist, Larj. And thanks to the generosity of the Bröxstônian government, the Dukes are always on tour, spreading their uniquely punk thrash sounds to an unsuspecting world!

In this long-form series of the Dukes, episodes feature the always insane adventures of the 'Lords of Loud', along with unique Bröxstônian advertisements.

Join Arj, Barj and Larj, as they deal with monstrous fans, rival bands, cyborg robots, video game monsters and wild west villains. But remember, what happens on the road, stays on the road.

The Dukes was created by writer Stu Connolly and designer Suren Perera, and features the voice talents of comedian Andrew McClelland. The series is produced by Sticky Pictures (Me & My Monsters, Pearlie, Dennis & Gnasher, Monster Auditions).
