  • Summary

  • How far would you go to get your dream job?

    In The Temp, Warren (Marek Larwood) is sent to a variety of temp jobs by his recruitment officer Aimee (Vicki Pepperdine) on the promise that if he does a good job, it might become permanent. And each time, the job turns out to be more dangerous and ludicrous than advertised. Open-minded to the point of mindless, Warren never seems to notice that the job is very different to the job description - he just wants to do a good job, and get made permanent.

One of the best bedside companions

Each story is unique with it's own silly twist. It's a fusion of Toast of London and Chicken Little. at least to me the absurdity and innocence of Warren is frightenly believable but still affable. love love love it!

Amazing stuff!
