Newest Xmastime Slice!

The Cleaner, Britbox

Paul "Wicky" Wickstead, a Government-certified cleaning technician, is responsible for the removal of any signs of death from crime scenes. In the course of his work, he gets to know a variety of people.

Created by/written by/starring Xmastime fave Greg Davies, already in the Hall of Fame with pantheon classics such as The Inbetweeners & Cuckoo and the wildly entertaining Man Down, it comes as absolutely no surprise that after only one episode I love this show. The first signal is that the first episode stars Helena Bonham Carter, as in how many sitcoms does a genuine movie legend like her do? Not only did they get, her but they got her to do an entire scene of herself loudly shitting on the toilet!!

Will inhale the entire first season tout suite, people!

Over the years Davies has seemed to lead the league in killing it on The Graham Norton Show; here he is with a great BTS story of the bathroom scene.
