Whistling

Sam and Henry are battling to make a documentary series about birds. In the Netherlands, they’re observing a chicken. From 2017.

Comedian. Writer. Ex-Zoo Keeper. Bird Watcher. Definitely NOT a people person.

Sam and Henry are making a documentary series about birds, each week - armed with Sam's 'Big Book of Birds' they seek out different species. Despite Henry's best efforts, Sam is continually aggravated by the people they run into. Each encounter sparks an investigation into Sam's past, because once they've sorted out his issues, they'll really be able to focus on the bird-watching.

Now they're in the Netherlands observing a chicken...

The unique talents of the multi-award winning comedian Sam Simmons have landed.
