Mandy Episode 1

Comedy film about Mandy, a woman who really wants a sofa, and will stop at absolutely nothing to get it. Have you ever seen a sofa you like in a shop window and really wanted it? Wanted it so much you can't stop thinking about it? Wanted it so much you feel physically sick? Wanted it so much that nothing else in your life matters and you would do anything, literally anything to get it, no matter the cost? Of course you have, we all have. And at long last, someone has made a comedy film about really really wanting a sofa. We could tell you the sofa is a metaphor for something - happiness maybe, or equality perhaps. But it isn't. It's just a really nice sofa.

Sorry Episode 2

Dolly Adesina, an actress on the verge of super-stardom and a self-described 'black Jennifer Lawrence', is on the way to the London premiere of her first Hollywood film. During the journey, she finds out she's trending on Twitter, but for all the wrong reasons - putting her career in jeopardy... Sorry explores the ideas of intent, regret and redemption, and asks the question: 'who gets a second chance?'

Lazy Susan Episode 3

Sketch duo Lazy Susan - Freya Parker and Celeste Dring - bring their "hilarious and twisted world view" to the television. Their 10 minute show will feature new creations alongside some of their best-loved characters from their stage shows; such as Megan and Michaela who just 'don't want any drama tonight' and Thomas and Sandrine the 'whimsical French woman, written by a man who's never met a woman'. Subversive, strangely universal, and most importantly, extremely funny - this is Lazy Susan's world and we're all just living in it.

Brain In Gear Episode 4

A flat-share comedy where the nightmare tenants... are the voices in your head. They are the voices that tell you to get out there and apply for that job, flirt with that stranger, carpe that diem... And the other one. The one that tells you stay in bed. Caught in the middle is Remi, a perfectly normal, if somewhat anxious single woman in her *cough* late 20s. Remi tries her best to navigate the contradicting advice from her inner selves who refuse to stay "inner", and have an annoying habit of appearing uninvited in her home. Brain In Gear is a funny, surreal yet relatable, poignant yet puerile take on the conversations we have with ourselves every day.
