Les Vegas is alive, and Emily becomes his unwilling partner-in-crime. Les plots his escape from Sandylands, and Emily manages to keep them all from the mysterious One-Eyed Man.
First airing on Gold in 2020, this seaside-set sitcom follows 27-year-old Emily Verma (Natalie Dew), returning to her rundown childhood home town when her father, local legend Les Vegas (Sanjeev Bhaskar) disappears. There’s a cast of familiar faces working well within their comfort zones (B&B owners David Walliams and Sophie Thompson, Simon Bird’s copper, Craig Parkinson’s nightclub owner), but it’s none the worse for that.
A couple of cracking set-pieces, a lovely soundtrack and an undertow of melancholy bode well, with Hugh Bonneville still to come as a mysterious one-eyed observer.
There are no live broadcasts scheduled for this show. But it is available via the streaming provider below.
