About the series

A story of hope, grief, and the strange between-everyday things.

What it’s about

Seven years after his beloved Clea vanished, Michael Slip turns to the supernatural. He tries to create homunculi, magical spirits that can predict what is to come.

What hooks you

Michael Palin plays Brain, with Charlotte Mills as Hilary and Mackenzie Crook as Gordon. The series unfolds largely in a garden shed, where the magical and the mundane meet.

Who it’s for

It is worth a look for anyone who enjoys gentle comedy built on eccentric characters, or who likes stories where the supernatural quietly enters ordinary life. It will also appeal to those drawn to British suburban settings and the charm of homemade magic.
