Top End Wedding’s TV spin-off Top End Bub gets September 12 air date
It was a box office smash when it launched in 2019. And now Lauren and Ned’s love story continues as Top End Wedding gets its long-awaited TV debut.
The film’s TV follow-up, Top End Bub, will premiere on Friday, September 12, on Prime Video.
The series sees Love Child star Miranda Tapsell, also the show’s creator, and The Great’s Gwilym Lee reprise their roles as newlyweds Lauren and Ned in the next chapter of their story, which picks up a few years on from when we saw them last.
