Poh & Co. secures second season on SBS

Media releases

 10 August 2015

After a successful debut series in 2015, SBS
has commissioned a second season of the popular Poh & Co., hosted by
the charming, warm and disarmingly honest cook and visual artist Poh
Ling Yeow.

“I’m back! And I have so much more to share.
It’s all about playing shop this time around as our market stall Jamface
continues to boom and I get busy fitting out my own commercial kitchen.
I also look into some super creative outdoor art projects, and of
course, I have a mountain of delicious food and recipes ready to go. So
join me in the burbs of Adelaide for a whole new set of adventures.”
Poh Ling Yeow

Poh & Co. season two has begun filming hot on the back of the hugely successful first season. Poh & Co.
was SBS’s highest rating food program in 2015 year-to-date for total
individuals with a combined (metro + regional) average audience of
443,000. In metro areas, it had the highest free-to-air share (8.2%) for
any food program of 2015 year-to-date. The series had a reach of
1,689,000 unique viewers (1,281,000 metro and 408,000 regional).*

In
season one, Poh and her family and friends set up a market stall, built
an edible garden and invented the world’s first fridge tattoo! A year
on, Poh returns to take audiences even deeper into her chaotic,
complicated and wonderfully creative world. Poh is taking her humble
stall from a single tent at the back corner of Adelaide’s Farmers’
Markets to a catering “megatent” five times the size of the original.
This growth drives Poh, hubby Jono and business partners’ Sara and Matt
to learn a host of new skills to navigate their complex busy lives. To
cope with the pressures, Poh bakes, paints and hangs out with her dogs,
Rhino and Tim.

Poh & Co. series two sees Poh transform
from domestic dreamer to suburban success story. Every episode will be
jam-packed with sumptuous dishes from Poh’s own baking repertoire along
with delicious Asian classics and a few secret family recipes.

Poh & Co. is an in-house SBS production. Concept/Executive Producer Erik Dwyer.
