Need some new TV to watch over the festive period?

How about three episodes of Macclesfield being featured on the big screen this year?

Why not put on this trio of telly shows when you snuggle up on the sofa this Christmas.

Without further ado, let's get started...

The Farmers' Country Showdown

First to air in 2022 was this look at rural Macclesfield life, as in January an episode of The Farmers' Country Showdown.

It covered the 76th Macclesfield Sheepdog Trials from the halfway point into the episode.

In March, a Homes Under The Hammer episode of ex-England footballer Dion Dublin visiting Macclesfield was broadcast.

It focuses on a two-bedroom converted mill property in central Macclesfield.

Head to the 13 minute mark to view Dion's compliments of the Grade-II listed property and our town.

Watch the show here.

Making Macclesfield FC: The Finale

Perhaps the most notable on the list, and airing just a few months before the documentary series would win a Royal Television Society Award, the second and final episode of the Macclesfield FC documentary aired this year.

The 15 minute finale hones in on the championship-winning confirmation match against Ashton Athletic, for which Nub News wrote an article on about HERE.

While the first episode aired in 2021, the sequel and finale aired this spring. Watch the full episode and relive promotion glory by clicking here.

And it wasn't just Macclesfield of the local places to make it on telly this year.

Bollington was heavily featured in BBC drama Ralph and Katie. Click here to watch that.
