The Job Lot

Work is at the centre of this warm and funny modern sitcom from the award-winning producers of Rev. and Friday Night Dinner, and featuring an impressive ensemble cast of renowned comedy actors. It's work - or the lack of it - that brings the characters together, and their relationships - or lack of them - around which The Job Lot revolves. Set in a job centre where the staff attempt, with varying degrees of enthusiasm, to help people find work, it's full of the often laugh-out-loud moments that anyone who's ever worked in an office will recognise. Neurotic manager Trish runs the Brownall Job Centre aided by a mixed-bag of staff, including reluctant and truculent Karl, the less-than-helpful Angela and two uniquely skilled security guards, all facing the challenges of dealing with customers who don't always appreciate their efforts.
