September. 20,2012

Gareth Malone is back and this time he wants to get staff in some of Britain's busiest workplaces singing while they work. Travelling across the country, he sets out to create four unique choirs in four very different organisations, which will then sing head-to-head in a contest to find his best workplace choir. Gareth is at Lewisham Healthcare NHS Trust to set up the first of his four choirs from the doctors, nurses and porters at one of London's busiest hospitals. But as the staff come together, the song Gareth chooses for them to sing proves challenging in a way that he wasn't expecting.

This time he travels to Manchester to create his third choir amongst baggage handlers, security staff, air traffic control and the fire crew of Manchester Airport.

Choirmaster Gareth Malone continues his mission to get some of Britain's busiest workplaces singing. This week he travels to the Midlands to set up final choir in one of the country's largest water companies, Severn Trent Water. Once formed, the choir will sing against three other workplace choirs as they compete for the chance to be crowned Gareth's Best Workplace choir. With over five thousand call centre staff and over five hundred workmen, dealing with everything from raw sewage and finding leaks, finding thirty people to make up the choir appears easy. But as staff are struggling to juggle family commitments and busy work schedules, things aren't plain sailing and Gareth begins to feel the pressure.

Episode 5 - The Semi-Final
October. 18,2012

With all of his workplace choirs set up, the contest to find Gareth Malone's best workplace choir begins in earnest as all four choirs compete against each other for the first time. Each choir is given a new song and Gareth piles on the pressure by announcing that they must create a distinctive performance routine if they want to stand out. Each choir has less than four weeks to prepare, before they must perform in front of the three expert judges at Bristol's prestigious Colston Hall.

Episode 6 - The Final
October. 25,2012

After last show's semi-final performances in front of the judges, it is time for the final three to battle it out.

In the audience will be the three expert judges who will decide which choir will win the overall contest and be crowned Gareth's Best Workplace Choir.
