​Deep End
bad move

​When Steve and Nicky wake up to a beautiful sunny morning life in the countryside doesn't feel so bad after all... but they're soon brought back to earth when they discover their kitchen is flooded. Nicky tries calling a plumber but nobody can come for a couple of days so they resort to sweeping and shovelling the water out themselves. Their smug neighbours, Matt and Meena, only rub salt in their wounds by reminding them that they live in a dip so the water is probably coming up through the floor, and Nicky's father, Ken, says they'll have to tank the place, which will cost a fortune.

Duration: 22 minutes and 21 seconds

About Bad Move:

​Jack Dee stars in this comedy about the good life gone very wrong.

What's not to love about the countryside? Fresh air, fresh eggs, fresh start.

But lifelong townies Steve and Nicky soon realise they have made a seriously bad move.

Their new house is in an internet black hole, the locals loathe them, and Steve's web design business is looking pretty hopeless without the web.

Soon they are fantasising about life back in Leeds, where they had great friends, successful careers and excellent takeaway food.
