John Finnemore's Double Acts: Series 2

This is the second series of one-off comedies written by the genius behind the smash-hit radio sitcom "e;Cabin Pressure"e; - John Finnemore. The first series won the coveted Writers Guild of Great Britain award for Best Comedy. Each show is a comedy perfumed by just two actors - including (across the series) famous household names such as Martin Clunes ("e;Doc Martin"e;), Julia McKenzie ("e;Fresh Fields"e;) and the inimitable voice of Carolyn in "e;Cabin Pressure"e;, Stephanie Cole. The show comes from Pozzitive, proud producers of Cabin Pressure, Thanks A Lot, Milton Jones!, Jeremy Hardy Speaks To The Nation, The Brig Society, The Castle, Armando Iannucci's Charm Offensive, Shush! & Kevin Eldon Will See You Now... Stephanie Cole and Kerry Godliman ("e;Derek"e;) star in the first episode - "e;The Queen's Speech"e; - Victoria is very much hoping to see a conjuror, or at the very least a parrot - but instead meets Mabel...

In the third show, newcomers Kieran Hodgson (2017 South Bank Arts - Breakthrough Comedy Award) and Ethan Lawrence ("e;Bad Education"e;) are Pidge & Gavin in "e;Here's What We Do"e; - Pidge & Gavin! The old team back together again for one last mission... And Show 4 pairs the inimitable Una Stubbs ("e;Sherlock"e;) and Tamzin Outhwaite ("e;Redcap"e;) in "e;The Rebel Alliance"e; - Eileen and Lizzie are both determined to enjoy the wedding. No matter what Yvonne does... Show 5 stars Martin Clunes (Doc Martin) and Tom Goodman-Hill ("e;Humans"e;) with a bit of "e;Penguin Diplomacy"e;- when a chance meeting between Sondergaard and Bunning could very well lead to a new Cold War... And John Finnemore himself stars in the final show alongside comedy hero Michael Palin in "e;The Wroxton Box"e; - Alec is late as usual. But Percy is wearing different socks. Something big is brewing...
