Hello everyone! We are a brand new, completely improvised comedy series starring some of the UK’s freshest talent. We’ll be dropping all 8 of our webisodes next week, but in the meantime why don’t we get to know each other? (Thread)

They should put “Fan Favourite” in front of Fatiha’s name the way they put “Academy Award Winner” in front of actors names.

REASON TO REWATCH EP#8

The only couple to get it done in 2 minutes. Think about that. At 0 seconds they had nothing. At 120 seconds they had written and performed an ENTIRE STORY. 2 minutes. Unbelievably nimble stuff.

REASON TO REWATCH EP#7

Jazz singers never force notes, they only sing what's in their heart. Got the same vibe from these two cats. Just looked each other in the eye and told the truth. And that's jazz baby.

REASON TO REWATCH EP#6

Due to location nonsense, we had half the time we needed with the last few pairs. These two were the final pair and this take finished seconds before the lights turned off. But do you see an ounce of panic on their faces? Ice cold.

REASON TO REWATCH EP#5

Loved how much non-verbal communication was going on. From a twist of the bracelet to a cock of the head. Nice example of only using words if absolutely necessary.

REASON TO REWATCH EP#4

Imagine being a first-time improviser and then laying down this 24 karat gold. Well, that’s @fatihaelghorri for you. (Also due to some devilishly expert guidance from improv master @Talalaban)

REASON TO REWATCH EP#3

No cuts. Not one. Didn’t want anything to make you think this was anything less than miracle. Literal lightning in a bottle. Completely in awe of these two.

@improfilmclub Took our screenwriter weeks to come up with that.

[@8:58 - The Webseries @858Show]

Proof improv was happening BEHIND the lens as well. Imagine reacting this precisely to something completely spontaneous. Roger Deakins eat your heart out.

[@8:58 - The Webseries @858Show]

REASON TO REWATCH EP#2

These kids were the first pair of the day. I had no idea if the concept was going to work - let alone be funny. Imagine my joy when this started happening.

BONUS: @lfuller's boss level Spielberg push in at the end.

REASON TO REWATCH EP#1

We had to do ADR on one of @THE_DANDY_LION's lines. Can you figure out which line is director @RileyMadincea doing an impression of Ruairi...?

@loudemile LOU! You were our Day 1 Superfan. What did you think? Did you have a favourite? (don't worry, we won't tell...) x

[@8:58 - The Webseries @858Show]

And that’s it! Did you read the whole thing? Probably not. We are currently putting the final touches on the last couple episodes, then we'll be uploading the whole series just as soon as our broadband allows! Stay tuned...
