Simon Day and his characters welcome you back to The Mallard, a small provincial theatre somewhere in the UK.

Each week one of Simon's comic characters come to perform, while the staff struggle with rivalries, self-doubt and the new owner's vision for the theatre's future.

This time, Australian celebrity chef, Mick Cunningham arrives labouring under the misapprehension that he'll be filming a TV show.
