STATIC
STATIC is a brand new BBC sitcom written by 8 out of 10 Cats captain Rob Beckett and Shaun Pye, all about twenty-something Rob (Rob Beckett) who jacks in a job in London to move back in with his parents (played by Alison Steadman and Phil Davis) in their southeast London family home. Except what they’ve failed to tell him is that they’ve just sold the family home and moved to a static caravan park in Margate.
Not only is Rob now jobless, but he’s now having to live on a sofa-bed in his parents’ caravan in a holiday park 80 miles from London whilst he figures out his next move.
It seems like a disaster to start with, but his mum’s delighted to have someone to cook for, and his dad’s figured out how to get thousands of football channels on the telly. Before long Rob’s getting used to being with mum and dad again, and through them he’s quickly drawn into the world of the park, not to mention the raft of extraordinary characters within it. The question is – how quickly can he get back on his feet, and back to London? And, as time goes on – how much does he really want to?
The show will record on Tuesday 15th August 2017 at Pinewood Studios. If you would like to join us for an evening of laughter, then apply now!
