Jeff and Frank get entangled in the seamy underside of Flamford life. Can they escape the web? Stars Philip Jackson. From 2020.
Jeff ill-advisedly offers to clean the chaotic drains of his girlfriend Corinne while she’s away at a pest control conference.
Seeking to free himself from this unsavoury task, Jeff strikes a murky deal with Fish Shop Frank to swap DIY tasks - Frank will clear Corinne’s drains and Jeff will fix Frank’s shelves.
However, things don’t go according to plan.
The hapless pair are sucked into a swirling vortex leading to a seething netherworld of crime and Mariachi. Along the way they once again meet punctilious and pedantic policeman, PC Clarke (“That’s Clarke with an ‘e’”) and also unorthodox and erratic limo driver, Psycho Pete.
In the meantime, Andy is training to be a bingo-caller. Unlucky for some - 13.
Created and written by Ian Brown and James Hendrie.
