The starting point for this new six-part drama was writer Paula Milne's fascination with surveillance techniques. She researched her subject by joining a private detective on the chase. "It's the most incredible adrenaline charge following someone. You're living off your wits - you don't know what's going to happen next."
With divorce becoming a growth industry, the idea of two women pairing up to run their own private detective agency investigating infidelity seemed a natural one. Says Milne: "Detectives tell me that 99 per cent of people who suspect their partners, are right about them being unfaithful."
In "Odd Job", sisters-in-law Dee Tate and Elly Chandler take on their first case. Both have very different reasons for getting involved.

Taking an idiosyncratic journey through his homeland, Billy Connolly sets out on a new six-part series during which he stops off in the evenings to perform in venues ranging from the big city theatres of Glasgow and Edinburgh to isolated village halls.
The scene moves from the bulldozed Glasgow street where he was born to the shores of Loch Lomond , "my favourite place", where the play of light and shade gives it a constantly shifting beauty.
Connolly talks about his approach to performing: "The worst is to go on completely confident. You should always be jumpy." His journey is studded with samples of his unique (and jumpy) comic performances. Director William McLellan
Producer Bill Tennant
