A House in History
Sitcom starring Alistair Green and Kath Hughes as contestants on a new reality TV show, and Emily Lloyd-Saini and Alex Owen as the executives trying to thwart them.
A House In History is a brilliant new reality TV show which is nothing like Big Brother, actually - we follow one family, the Colchesters, as they live in a 1940s house with the clothes, amenities, food and restrictions that would have been in place.
Unfortunately the show is also massively over-budget, so the producers desperately need to ensure the Colchesters get nowhere near completing the six weeks in the house, which would see them win Β£100,000.
A House In History is written and directed by Will Farrell and Ben Rowse, the creative team behind the hit web series Petrichor (βA perfectly pitched portrait of deluded creatives pursuing a misguided passion project, it nailed the comedy of cringe without being self-indulgent... easily one of the best indie projects released over lockdownβ - Chortle) and the podcast Capital (βdisturbingly funnyβ - The Guardian).
