Bedsitcom - a 6-part comedy drama podcast following the intimacies, awkwardness and elicit thrills of forbidden office romance!
Writer Luke Murray came to us with a couple of ideas he'd been working on. From this meeting Bedsitcom was developed.
We worked with Luke to develop his scripts into this 6-part series, now available in all good podcast places.
Colin is a downtrodden department head who can’t believe his luck when the ‘way out of his league’ Naomi falls into his bed…. and actually seems to enjoy his nerdy jokes and terrible timing. The only problem is, Colin’s the boss, and Naomi has a few secrets she’s not quite filled him in on. Will they work it out?
