1. Never The Twin

The BreakSeries 3
Episode 1 of 6

It’s September and Flamford’s Christmas Market is in full flow. Jeff and Andy find a mystery. Stars Philip Jackson. From 2020.

It's September in Flamford, which can only mean one thing - the Flamford Christmas Market is in full flow.

Jeff persuades his recalcitrant London nephew Andy to join him in a gift-shopping expedition.

Along the way they encounter pokerwork sign-maker and fire hazard Pam, loud, lovelorn and now jobless Town Crier Peter Humfriss and The Ghost of Christmas-Who-Gives-A-Stuff - chiselling pensioner Mr Truepenny.

Christmas, even though it’s September, is also a time for mysteries - one of which sees Jeff and Andy pitted against the enigmatic Applegarth twins.

Created and written by Ian Brown and James Hendrie
