Who Replaced Avril Lavigne?

Comedian Joanne McNally investigates the Avril Lavigne Replacement Theory.

Avril Lavigne was a punk pop sensation who topped the charts in the early noughties, and she still performs to sold-out crowds today. But what if the Avril we've been following all these years is not the same Avril we fell in love with? What if β€” as a curious theory claims β€” Avril was replaced by a look-alike at the height of her fame?

In 'Who Replaced Avril Lavigne" comedian Joanne McNally searches far and wide β€” from Avril's hometown to the underbelly of the internet β€” to find out if the rumours are true. Along the way, she immerses herself in a mind-bending world of fake celebrity deaths, doppelgangers, conspiracy theories, and downright absurdity.
