1. Advertising

Put away your P45, you're not going to need it – it's Expenses Only.

Two young interns Tim and Miranda face heated hot-seating, intense lunch runs and jingle-themed back-stabbing as they compete for the same internship in the acronym-obsessed world of advertising.

Alex Lynch’s narrative sketch show is centred around internships and the world of work experience.

In each episode, the show's two leading 20-something protagonists, Tim (enthusiastic worker) and Miranda (jaded graduate), attempt to break into a different industry through a series of increasingly challenging placements.

With an ensemble cast tied together with linking sketches, signature ad-breaks and the Narrator who, with his deadpan delivery and wry commentary, guides us through the schadenfreude and chaos that unravels across an episode.
