Shows Narrative

The overall plot of this dark comedy sketch show is many random sketches to build a series but there are four specific stories within the series that will have plots and twists. The Four specific dark comedy sketches will then be split into two as the different characters meet.

Key plot points for recurring characters: Action Hero Wannabe

Dave Bond the action hero wannabe always transforms simple jobs into secret missions, constantly in disguise. These disguises range from James Bond to John McClain (Bruce Willis - Die Hard). Due to his immature attitude to life, his family have lost respect for him and are constantly embarrassed by his actions. One day his family may find out that Dave is really an MI5 Agent and has been undercover for a long time so that one day he can infiltrate the evil Psychiatrist. This is where the dark comedy element is introduced.

Seedy Captor

This very dark comedy sketch is based in the UK countryside a very disturbed old man constantly snatching people off the street and locking them in his basement. He has a few rooms in his basement and believes that he is protecting the people from the bad world out there. He seems very seedy and my come across as a perverted old man but really in his mind he is the father to lost sheep, he does talk in a dirty manner though. Later this dark comedy plot will thicken and the truth will be freed. The Seedy Captor is really a vampire building an army to take the world.

Bed and Breakfast

A couple of delusional people become obsessed with the fact that vampires exist and they realise that they themselves could be vampires, therefore they remove their "Vampire" teeth.

The surreal dark comedy aspect of this show now thickens as they are convinced that everyone who has teeth are vampires and are coming to their B&B to turn them. Through these tales, the two men look completely insane but they have a run in with a particular individual who proves their theory right, but will it be too late?

Psychiatrist

The Psychiatrist is a desperate man who doesn't want to cure any of his patients because he is petrified of loosing the business. Later in the series there will be an intervention and some of his patients will confront him. The last episode will have the psychiatrist meet with a specific MI5 agent.
