A brand new sketch series set in a fictional Scottish location that's somehow strangely familiar.

Episode one includes an impassioned battle with a voice-activated lift, the amazing career trajectory of a single-issue MP and an incredible chain of events set in motion by the tossing of a two-litre bottle of ginger. Elsewhere, all is not what it seems on the streets of Burnistoun. Is that noise really caused by divine intervention? Ronnie Stokes tries on the wrong pair of shoes and ends up in hospital. And can psychic Sammy Strange successfully predict everything that will happen during an interview on Radio Burnistoun?

Written by and starring Robert Florence and Iain Connell with Kirsty Strain, Richard Rankin and Allan Miller.
