Further details
Tim has come up with another money-making idea to secure his fame and fortune. Having stumbled upon fan fiction that fuses the best of Star Wars, Lord of the Rings and Harry Potter, Tim is confident his new stage version will be a rip-roaring success. But he's overlooked as the play's leading man when Harrison Ford lookalike Jamie swaggers into town.
Tim tries to usurp the handsome interloper, but will it be at the expense of the production? And can the novice theatre impresario coax a performance out of fledgling Morgan Freeman lookalike Lloyd?
Having failed to sign up 'Paul McCartney' to his failing agency, Andy gets a lifeline when he's asked to provide security at an 18th birthday party.

Press
The structured reality comedy built around Andy "David Beckham" Harmer and frenemy Tim "David Brent" Oliver continues. Tonight's offering sees Tim plan a fanfic-powered stage show, but will he able to resist the temptation to try to upstage "Harrison Ford"? It's all rather silly, but frequently amusing.
