the dance-and-comedy duo's live shows. They wrote their sketch the night before the show, and were a hit with the audience. Dee Kaate, who had performed a stand-up comedy act in the show, met with them afterward. The three immediately began discussing ways to create their own content to boost their careers. Eight days after the Twist and Pulse live show, the trio filmed their first episode of Mandem on the Wall, a web series about three young South London men sitting on a wall, flirting with passing girls, and "talking bullshit". Mandem premiered on December 24, 2011. Within a month, the episode had 1.1 million views on YouTube and the trio was famous among teens and young adults in Britain. Wade's father helped manage the Mandem project, which eventually had a live presentation at the Hackney Empire theatre in 2015. British television success and film debut The three worked on Mandem on the Wall in order to get on television. Based on the success of Mandem, Wade was cast in the first series of the BBC comedy Big School, which aired in 2013. Big Talk Productions became interested in the trio based on their success with Mandem as well, and cast Wade, Ascott, and Kaate in the teen drama Youngers on E4. Youngers lasted for two series. Big Talk Productions encouraged Wade, Ascott, and Kaate to pitch their own show. That pitch never happened: There were delays in securing the green-light for a second series of Youngers, and the trio did not want to leave the show in the lurch. In 2014 and 2015, Wade appeared in two episodes of Doctor Who as Rigsy, a young graffiti artist who helps save the world. Wade joined the cast of BBC soap opera EastEnders in February 2016 as Jordan Johnson, taking over the role from Michael-Joel David Stuart. Filming four episodes a week for four months proved time-consuming, and Wade says his businesses suffered from it. Wade, Ascott, and Kaate filmed The JPD Show for BBC Three in mid-2016, but the pilot was not picked up. The trio also starred in the 2016 film The Weekend, a comedy about three youths who find a gangster's sack of money and spend it all before the mobster demands it back. The Weekend marked Wade's British feature film debut. Wall of Comedy and Shiro's Story Wade says that his acting career took so much
