Football's Coming Home

Episode 1 of 4

Richie Webb stars as Nigel Penny, a cocktail pianist whose entrepreneurial brother books him for gigs he doesn鈥檛 need. This time, as the pre-match entertainment at a football game.

Richie Webb stars as performance-shy cocktail pianist Nigel Penny.

Nigel Penny鈥檚 attempts to live his life like his music, in the background, are constantly thwarted by his entrepreneurial half-brother, Pav (Paul G Raymond) who is desperate to find gigs for Nigel and his musical partner, wannabe singer Rachel (Jess Robinson).

Attempting to entertain the crowd at a football match is a hard enough gig as it is, but when you hate football as much as Nigel does it鈥檚 an even trickier ask. Factor in Pav鈥檚 desire to make a quick buck, Stan鈥檚 paranoia that the Russians are still after him and Rachel鈥檚 obsession with Gary Lineker's Twitter account, and it鈥檚 a recipe for a pitch invasion.
