    • Trivia
      Adam Buxton & Iain Lee, and in a later episode Adam Buxton & Daisy Haggard, discuss their difficult experiences with this project on the Adam Buxton Podcast. They spoke about how the script never really clicked, and how they would be filming an episode whilst still trying to come up with a finale to close it. Adam says his (showbiz) phone never rang for 6 months following.

    Complete and utter crap!

    The premise for the show sounded promising, unfortunately I then had the misfortune to actually watch it! I can't believe that somebody actually got paid for this garbage. Abysmal writing and the acting was truly awful.

    I must admit that I only watched the first episode of this "comedy," which is set in the offices of a fictional ad company, maybe it got better as the series progressed - after all, it really couldn't get any worse, could it?

    The series was written and created by Jonathan Thake. I guess he must have some friends at the BBC.
