The Fans

Q. How many people watch the show?
A. The highest viewing figure in the UK was 14.99 million (S1,Ep5). It's also shown all over the world.

Q. What are fans of the series called?
A. We generally call ourselves 'angels' - there's even a smilie for 'angels' O:-)

Q. Is there any merchandise available?
A. Yes. Alken Merchandise run a very good worldwide delivery service of BallyK merchandise. You can see details and reviews of the available products on the merchandise page.

Q. Are those the only videos available?
Yes. To date, only the first series has been released on video and the BBC have no plans to release further tapes.

Q. Can I visit the set?
The exterior shooting in Avoca is mostly an open set. This means that you can watch the filming there (as long as you keep quiet and out of shot). You must be on your best behaviour and follow the rules set by the production team - particularly absolute silence and no photography during takes. Between takes, the actors will usually be happy to sign autographs. Interior filming is a closed set. For more information on exterior filming, click here.

Q. Are there any other Ballykissangel web sites?
A. Oh yes. There's a list of them on the links page, and there's also a webring.
The official sites are run by World Productions and BBC Northern Ireland.

Q. How can I talk to other fans of the show?
You can use the forum and chat room on this site (in the 'Interactive' section). World-Productions.com also has a Ballykissangel forum. Another way is to join one of the BallyK mailing lists hosted by EGroups.
