Admin

Gets a series.

'Nigel Havers is the unlikely star of one of a pair of new BBC Three comedy series from Manchester indies.
Admin (working title) is a 6 x 30-minute "slacker sitcom" by Manchester-based comedy and entertainment indie Channel K. It is set in the postroom of a law firm and follows a group of young workers who try to get on by doing as little as possible.

The series was piloted in May last year and was based on the real-life experiences of writer David Isaac, who also wrote for BBC1's Not Going Out. Havers will support a yet-to-be-confirmed and relatively unknown cast in the role of Mike, the firm's owner.

The series will be produced by Matt Tiller with Matt Lipsey as -director'

I saw that pilot. Not bad...

Presumably Nigel Havers' character won't be in the postroom..

I'm looking forward to this series-I quite enjoyed the pilot. Sad to hear that Neil Fitzmaurice won't be continuing in the role of Mike-I'm sure he played him in the pilot!

Good luck to David. Let's hope it goes well.

Very old and very sad news.

Still, Nigel Havers could save the show.

BTW, this *really* should have been stuck in the pilot thread, not in a new one.

Marc P's gone rogue.

He's a loose cannon; a bit Jack Delaney if I had to make a comparison...

:D It's scary how he's brainwashed us all into knowing about his stuff.

Back on-topic please.

I thought we were allowed to go off topic if the show hadn't started yet?

Incorrect.

Chipolata and incorrect are two words that you never hear in the same sentence.
