Empty

[roguem]

I've been watching a cute little TV show called 'Empty'. 
It's not really very eventful, but it's funny, high spirited.
Billy Boyd has one of the lead roles, which is why I started watching, but I' really enjoying it.
If you get the chance, have a look.


Jacky (Gregor Fisher) and Tony (Billy Boyd) are two ordinary guys who work for a property maintenance company, clearing out empty or fire-damaged flats and making simple repairs. Despite being very different, these two have simply "hit it off".
For both men, work is an escape. When they are together in an empty flat, they can go into their own little world – a place of wild flights of fancy and comic imaginings sparked by items they find or problems they encounter in each new location.
Promising to be both poignant and funny, Empty sees Jacky and Tony explore comic possibilities in the most mundane situations before the real world intrudes with its uncanny knack of bringing them comically back down to Earth.

Think the next one they're showing on TV is the last one of the season. I hope you like it though, I find it quite charming.

I've been religiously checking the BBC America TV schedule in hopes that this show will be shown in the US. Nothing so far, but it would be unusual for them to air a show here before it has been on the air for a while in Europe.

I'm glad you think it's good. I'm keeping my fingers crossed.

That looks like a cute show. I'll have to look for it.

It hasn't finished airing in England yet, so it might be a while till it shows up on BBC America. I'm still waiting for the final episode. I hope it makes it way to you soon though.

It's very entertaining. :)
