BBC One - Still Game, Series 8, Grim Up North

A creepy new undertaker moves into Craiglang and everyone becomes spooked.

Sitcom. A creepy new undertaker moves into Craiglang. As Isa spreads gossip he's the grim reaper, the residents become spooked - but what is he really up to?

Iconic comedy series Still Game returns for another hilarious six-part series, following the capers of lifelong friends Jack Jarvis and Victor McDade as they cope with everything modern life throws at them. Created, written by and starring Ford Kiernan and Greg Hemphill, each week Still Game visits the fictional Glasgow suburb of Craiglang where Jack, Victor and the rest of the gang show us exactly how to grow old disgracefully.

Boabby is persuaded to have a lock-in at The Clansman to mark the passing of Craiglang's much-respected undertaker, so the regulars enjoy outdoing each other with stories of the most famous person they've ever met, dead or alive. 

After news spreads that a creepy new undertaker, Sheathing, has moved into Craiglang, nobody quite knows what to make of him. Isa, who's heard the stories, spreads the fear amongst the residents that he's the grim reaper. 

Jack decides to figure out who this mysterious new undertaker really is. But when Isa turns up at Victor's door in a complete panic and Sheathing appears unannounced, Jack and Victor have no option but to take matters into their own hands.
