Jinsy's accountants have gone feral, at a time when The Great He is demanding Maven's accounts. In order to get the accounts done on time, Sporall negotiates to have the Chief Accountant's daughter, Berpetta (Ben Miller), work in the Tower for a while. She takes an immediate shine to Maven, and, to his horror, he finds himself engaged to her - a match the Chief (also Ben Miller) is keen to have consummated.

When Maven and Sporall attend Jinsy's Firelock Festival, local astrologer Madame Astralina (Katy Brand) predicts that Maven will be assassinated.

Maven's love of popular island show, 'Extreme Etiquette for Girls' and its matronly hostess Miss Penny, leads him and Sporall to dress up as young ladies to try and meet Miss Penny (Eileen Atkins) in person.

29/1/14
Solo temporada
The forbidden festival of Nacken is upon the island. Maven makes the whole island, including Sporall, take their nightly bye pill. But Sporall doesn't take his, so he can go down to the Moosic Tavern with Trince and a group of other residents, including manly singer, Rex Camalbeeter, to celebrate the festival in style. Maven takes to his bed, blissfully unaware, but the noise and revelry from the tavern threaten to wake him from his slumber.

Maven suspects that a cell of islanders are secretly sending covert messages to each other via 'textile messaging'. He accuses Mr Lovely - of Mr Lovely's Lovely Jumper Shop - of being the ringleader that he is calling 'The Speckled Pom Pom.'

7 Population 791

A baby is born on the island, pushing the island population past its limit of 791 residents. The Great He immediately demands that Jinsy's oldest resident be killed off. Sporall discovers that it's 98-year old Robunce Barnatty (Derek Jacobi). They cross the island to break the bad news to him, but he turns out to be more than just a very old ex-wrestler.

12/2/14
Solo temporada
When Maven is invited to tea by old Arbiter Jenkins (Phil Davis) and his wife Joan (Olivia Colman), he discovers that the old Arbiter never gave back the official Arbiter woggle when his reign ended, meaning that Maven's been wearing a make-shift woggle all this time. Maven devises a plot to retrieve the real woggle from the old Arbiter, but he'll have to get past his eccentric wife and pesky parrot first.

Información de esta serie

As premiered on Sky Atlantic. This is Jinsy is a surreal comedy sketch show set on a fictional island populated by a range of oddball characters. With the eccentric humour of The Mighty Boosh and Monty Python, the show follows Operative Sporall and Arbiter Maven as they keep a close eye on the 791 residents of Jinsy from the Great Tower in the parish of Veen. Life on the island is rather Orwellian: each colourful member of the community is monitored by a surveillance system of tessellators. Featuring a host of songs, an impressive cast of renowned comedy actors and guest stars , This is Jinsy is set to be a cult classic.
