Product Information

A collection of six episodes of a sit-com about the hard and gritty humour of people who live and work in the real world, their particular situation being the night shift.'The Night Shift' is about the armchair politicians who can put the world to rights on the back of a fag packet and still have room to make a note of the next day's favourite in the 2.30 at Epsom. It's about making mischief and having a bit of a laugh and crack to while away the long hours of a twelve hour shift, doing as little as possible for as much as possible.

"I like the scripts, reminds me a bit of Beckett and Charlie Chaplin with a sprinkling of seventies sitcom such as 'On the Buses' or 'Love thy Neighbour' - Simon Hattenstone, Guardian journalist

"Extremely funny with factory floor characters so real they seem surreal. But like all good humour rooted in experience it retains a 'Kes'-like authenticity so difficult to capture. This should be a prime-time TV series." - Gary Horne, former BBC 'Panorama' Producer

"'The Night Shift' is the voice of the UK factory floor in an age of globalisation when production is shifting to the low wage economies of the far east and the workshop of the world has become the warehouse of the world has become the warehouse of the just-in-time economy. What happens to shop-floor banter and working class wit in such a society is recorded here as 'I'm All Right Jack' meets 'Waiting For Godot'." - Alex Gordon, Secretary of South Wales and West of England Council of the RMT

The Night Shift

I enjoyed these stories; they are not outstanding literature but quite entertaining.
