The comedian came to town on June 4, 2011, to film ‘Jo Brand’s Big Splash’.
The programme, which aired on TV channel Dave, combined Brand’s stand-up comedy performances with footage of her taking part in various water related activities. Its purpose was to ‘explore Britain’s relationship with water’.
While in Eastbourne, Brand coaxed several people into the sea, dishing out ice-creams as an incentive and chatting to locals.
