The East Coast Listening Post was created by Edinburgh Comedy Award-nominated duo Lazy Susan.

Journalist sisters, Jenna and Dana, tour the UK and interview its inhabitants in their quest to reveal something meaningful, inadvertently revealing themselves in the process.

In this first episode, they get a glimpse of the dying embers of the old British aristocracy.

They go and stay with two elderly sisters, Gilly and Sally, whose neighbours are up in arms over the behaviour of the elder sibling who refuses to grow old gracefully.

Will the old aristocrats win round their neighbours by throwing a party in their honour?

Written and performed by Celeste Dring and Freya Parker.
