Grease
Monkeys
Μύ
The sexually irrepressible and morally irresponsible
Dave Dhillon returns to cause more trouble in Grease Monkeys, the dark
comedy series that centres on a dysfunctional family in Manchester,
all of whom work at Grand Trunk Garage.
The Garage is owned by patriarch Mo, who spends his time worrying about
his daughter, Rita, an ace car mechanic, and his son, Dave, who runs
the sales side of the business - mostly into the ground.
Μύ
Mo also has to contend with the ghost of his dead wife,
Jasbir.
Karl Collins joins Grease Monkeys as Dave's old school mate and
ex-con Trevor Baptiste.
Μύ
Trevor, depressed and suicidal, blames Dave for his
demise, but is persuaded to work at the Garage and soon becomes the
best car salesman in town.
Dave is played by Ahsen Bhatti, Mo by Madhav Sharma, Rita
by Archie Panjabi and Jasbir by Pooja Ghai.
Bodies
Μύ
Dark and disturbing yet rich in humour, Bodies is the
ultimate antidote to mainstream medical drama.
Μύ
Laced with action, scandal and sex, and complex in its
handling of moral dilemmas, this is a uniquely visceral and compelling
view of hospital life, inspired by former doctor Jed Mercurio's acclaimed
debut novel.
When Rob Lake starts work in a city maternity unit, he soon suspects
that his new boss, Roger Hurley, is error-prone.
Μύ
He tries to turn a blind eye - until a young mother
is left brain-damaged and her baby stillborn.
Μύ
Rob must risk his career to put a stop to Hurley's
negligence.
Rob Lake is played by Max Beesley and Roger Hurley by Patrick
Baladi.
Μύ
The cast also includes Neve McIntosh, Keith
Allen, Susan Lynch, Tamzin Malleson, Preeya Kalidas
and Karen Bryson.
