bad move

Steve and Nicky are missing their old life in the city. Nicky confesses she hates living in the countryside. Steve suggests they finally make a start on decorating their living room but neither can face it. Nicky leaves to buy some bread and milk at the shop. Whilst there Matt and Meena call round. They tell Steve they're going car free for a month and ask if they can have some of the timber outside to make a coup for their chickens. At the shop Nicky is conned by old Alice into taking her to a doctor's appointment.

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.
